The Very First Skyride!
Slow
to start, but then excellent. Pretty amazing for a first try, this
event was put on by GO Bike Buffalo. I am very proud of them and
thrilled to have them in our city.
It
was unfortunate that riders were not able to stop on top of the Skyway,
which is normally a car only expressway bridge that soars over the city
and the shipping canals and dominates the skyline. Rumor had it that
someone had attempted to commit suicide by jumping off City Hall and the
police/politicians were worried one of the Skyriders might do the same.
With the event came one free beer, which they lovingly poured into my empty water bottle : )
