The 14th annual Trenton Bike Tour was yesterday, but this is as far as I got in terms of actually riding in it.
This was partly because I realized only as I was putting the bike on the bike rack to head to the park that my tires were completely flat. But of course that was fixable, given the 200+ other riders plus the
Knapp's Cycling folks who were there at the ride start--somewhere there would have been an air pump to use. The main reason was that I was helping my fellow
TCR members in getting everyone registered and waivered, then going to get more fruit for the pit stop at
Artworks (since there were so many more riders than we expected--woo hoo!), then setting up the pit stop. Here's a picture of everyone heading off on the second leg of the tour after the break.
It was also Artworks' Art Making Day, where people were invited to come and make art to sumbit for
Art All Night on June 19-20. So while we were waiting for the riders we got to see the various art-making classes and activities in progress, which was also very cool--they also seemed to be getting a great turnout. And if you haven't yet seen the Ellarslie Open, which has works at both
Ellarslie (the Trenton City Museum) and Artworks, I recommend you go. The works are amazing, as are both of the spaces that house them.
