DMN Velomobile sighting
Nov 8th, 2017, 5:07pm
 
According to facebook, there's a picture of me in the metro section of Sundays DMN from the Dallas Bike Ride ..    Unfortunately, I'm out of the country and I long quit having pet birds so  I do not have easy access to the paper or a use for a subscription to it  until now.   SO --- If any of you RBENT'ers can look to see if you can find it I'd be much appreciative of latching ahold of a copy.
 
Thanks!

Doug, I searched through all 144 pages of Sunday's DMN, and found nothing related to the Dallas Bike Ride. Did the same for the Monday DMN and found nothing. Used the "Search" feature to locate any articles related to the "Dallas Bike Ride" in 11/5/17 thru 11/8/17 editions, and nothing came up. Strange. Can't believe there was no coverage.

OK, I found it on Page 2 of the "Metro & State" section of the 11/07/17 (Tuesday) edition of the DMN. It's on Page 14 of 56 of the electronic version of the paper. Don't know why I couldn't find it the other day when I did a search of the electronic version archives. Did a trial search today, and located the photos.
