Sorry, it's been a while since I've blogged: I've been busy!
Flock co-hosted a seed bomb ride with a local apiary and it was well-attended. I suffered a bit of 'Bomb-regret' with my bomb placement. In hindsight, I could have found a more suitable place to throw my bomb.

We'd heard that a driver of an SUV found their way onto one of the trails and not only damaged part of the Hot Metal Bridge ramp, but HIT a cyclist.
Later in April there was the Keg ride where 500 cyclists escort several kegs of East End Brewing Brewery's beer, hauled on trailers and two guys on a tandem. It is this event's 12th year. Marko and I, as well as many other CIKs (Cyclists I Know) assisted in marshaling: corking intersections with the assistance of 2 motorcycle cops and a patrol car in the sweep position. It was very nice to social with my people, the CIKs.

 |
| The marshals wore the Vests of Fredness. |
 |
| I got a tee shirt and Commonweath Press screen-printed it right there for me! |

 |
| Afterwards, we hung out at the Brewery's new location and drank beer and: more socializing! |
 |
| Then, Sarah and Noah opened up her home for grilled tube meats, libations and s'mores. Good times. |
Other various things we did on bikes:
 |
| Ride to Mineo's for a pie |
 |
| I attached all my Coffeeneauring and Errandonnee patches to a pannier |
 |
| We picnicked in parks |
Marko offered to help with my employer's Walk fundraiser: we were unable to afford a professional photographer this year and in lieu, I gave Marko my camera and he did a bang-up job of capturing images of our happy walkers.

| He climbed up onto a truck to get a nice eagle-eye view of the crowds. |

I enjoy seeing how many groceries I can cram onto my bike:
