the rich and famous, and back of 20 miles. After the ride we invite you to
bring a stand and display your classic and socialize with other bicycle
enthusiasts at the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf and the Natural Café.
If you do not have a classic but you’d like to ride with us
you are welcome to participate.
