July 29 2007 was another gorgeous Sunday and a chance to cycle the Colonel By Drive. The season is growing short and there are only a limited number of Sundays left, so there were lots of people out biking, skating, jogging plus many more ways of getting around.
We ran into some friends whom we had met before out there and also met quite a number of new people who stopped us to ask about the quadracycle.
There were lots of interesting ways of getting around and we took some photos of them.
The complete story is in our on-line journal.
