THE ride.....waiting for John's pictures....

I was wondering WHY 3,000 people would ride their bicycle 100 miles....all the way around Lake Tahoe!!!!!........., so I researched it on google and here is what I found out....

On June 7, 2009....3,000+ bicycling enthusiasts from all over the country participated in the 18th annual "America's Most Beautiful Bike Ride" around Lake Tahoe. This fun ride is not a race, but a tour and promotes the Lake Tahoe Bikeway project.

The ride is also the culmination of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's spring Team In Training (TNT) Cycle 100 national fund raising program where 1750 participants from 63 chapters and branches are participating and expect to raise over $6.8 million dollars.

this looks like a vintage poster photo...

look at the road and the
head gear of the spectators!!!!
