Ride Don't Hide - Ride Report - June 23, 2013
Congratulations to Gwen Vonarx (honourary Slowspoke), for organizing a successful first "Ride Don't Hide" event for Nanaimo. Despite the drizzly day, 65 riders negotiated the E and N trail in support of women's mental health. Ride leader Allen was joined in the ride by fellow Slowspokes Gary, Cheryl, Eileen, Brian, Luc, with SS Lorne and Jesse at the water station. Dropping by the celebrations later were Doug, (who mapped the course) and Keith, Nigel and Saul back from the Cedar market ride. Thanks for supporting the event, go Slowspokes. The photo is from the turn around staion.
