1973 Reunion Bike Tour

Pioneer Park

8:30 am - 3:00 pm

We invite ALL '73 grads to join us, using one of the rental bikes (see below) or your own! This was a REALLY fun time ten years ago and we hope to make it as memorable as that last ride.

Renting bikes for the day is possible due to the fantastic Judy Ulrich Carlson. She called the Elk Grove bike shop who did our last rentals and got MUCH better news than I did a couple months ago. We now have access to at least TWELVE rental bikes. I guess it pays to be as nice as Judy!

Here's the deal: each rental bike will be delivered to Pioneer Park (800 Fairview) at 8:30am on Saturday. Cost is $35 per bike, and delivery is $100 that will be split among the renters. Bikes will be picked up at 3:00pm.

The shop needs to know the riders' names and what size bike they would like (we need the riders' HEIGHT to determine that).

As for the tour route - of course you're free to do your own route. But if you'd like to join the "Toure de AH", we would love to get to everyone's "must-see" place. I'm willing to try to put together a route if everyone will send their suggestions to me at john@completeadvertising.com. We can't get EVERYWHERE, but we will absolutely try to squeeze in as much as we can. We'll try to hit as many neighborhoods as possible, and I'm hoping that AHS will once again be open for us to tour that day (if not, I think Tom Gray and Steve Smith can probably remember how to sneak in!).

SO...

...if you want a rental, please write me, along with your height, and any suggestions for our route.

...if you want to join us on your own bike, please send your route suggestions my way!

I hope you're looking forward to this reunion as much as I am! And a BIG thanks to Judy for making this happen!
