Tour de Moose 2008
There’s a guy named Kevin. His nickname is Moose. Four years ago, he decided to have a bike ride / pub crawl / birthday party called the Tour de Moose. Leslie and Jeff rode in it last year — Jeff memorably teaming up with Andrew to pedal a quadcycle 20+ miles through the St. Louis city streets (more pictures from last year).
The Tour stops at a number of neighborhood bars and restaurants, with games and trivia at each, with the 8+ hour day culminating in an awards ceremony.
This year, Leslie decided to help run the games as one of “Moose’s Angels,” taking Esme along for the ride (car ride, not bike ride). Jeff and probably 70-80 other people rode through 6 stages to 7 stops (plus an unofficial pit stop), enjoying the beautiful fall weather. As they say, a good time was had by all.
There are pictures, of course — as a bonus, those of you looking at these on the web (rather than via email or RSS) should be seeing pictures in a nifty new way. It’s something Jeff has been testing out, making it much easier to post more pictures to the blog and hopefully easier for you to see the full-size pictures. It’s still a work in progress, so let us know what you think…
