We parked at the north end of the Katy Trail and rode it down to the start near City Hall. Here I am putting together the trikes in the dark.

Don't know who they are, but they sure look cute on the triple.

Excellent pictures and looks like it was a good trike turn-out. A couple of the trikes were in the pictures on the news passing by. Good job.

Nice photos. Did you hear how many people did the ride?

Preliminary estimates were that 2850 riders showed up. It looked like more than that at the 8 mile split from the 20&30 mile courses.

I have a correction to make. :-[ The esteemed rider on the yellow cat trike is Key (Action_Lad), not Keith.

Thanks for the great photos. The bent community was well represented, what a cool bunt and real glad to see some more trikes out there.

Here is some more information for the photos. Patti is the woman standing by her red Cat trike in the 2 pictures before the start of the race, and she is sitting on her trike with her back to the camera in the picture after the ride.
