  • Happy Pride!

    I was in the parade again this year with Different Spokes.  We rode right behind the lifecycle which was great because I wanted to ride with them as well.  I love being in the pride parade!  It's 1.3 miles and it took us about a half an hour to get through.  I held the sign:

    Here we are before the parade:

    And we had to stop a bunch of times because the group behind us, "Hooters on Scooters" kept falling way way back.

    Roger was totally the crowd favorite.  I wish I had a fan club!



    After, I went and worked the booth for an hour which was fun and then we walked around.  It was great!  Jeff and Nathan got to join us and we had lots of fun walking around and looking at people.  Pride was very political this year.  And it should be.  I'm all of favor of a huge party with towering drag queens and disco music but this is a critical year and we have a lot going on.
