Re: LocoJoe's Most Recent Ride (In To The Big City)
yoothgeye - Her winnings paid for our lunch and beverages. We're not really into gambling but the casino is a nice bike ride and gives us a destination. In the few times we've been there that's the first I think either of us has won. We never play with more than a few dollars. Penny and quarter games.
Gravel roads are the worst she's ridden the bike on so far and it really hasn't been much of a hindrance. I would like to put a little wider tires on it though. Thanks for the thumbs ups!
jerrykr -Your Sunday ride sounds like ours. We've had some great mild weather here. Always seems to be pretty good wind though.
MplsCoaster - Thanks Steve. That shot (like a lot of mine) was taken while riding with me just pointing the camera back behind me. Got lucky. You ought to see how many bad photos I have to sift through to find the few good ones.
kingfish254 - Thanks I appreciate that.
Yesterday I rode in to the South end of the big city to meet a friend for lunch. After lunch I rode farther up to the North end of the city before turning back home. Was a little over 30 miles.
The Orpheum theatre one of the finest remaining examples of atmospheric school of theatre architecture which was developed during the first part of the 1900′s. There were two major schools of design: the standard school derived its form and decoration from nineteenth century opera houses and the vaudeville theatre traditions. The atmospheric school concentrated on creating interiors that could provide the patron with the feeling he inhabited a landscape setting.
