We left from Stell (in Redlands) at just after 7 a.m. Saturday and got back to Redlands at about 2 a.m. Sunday.
We did two events in two cities, met a bunch of cool people, did some scabby elbow rubbin', watched bike movies, talked and laughed a lot, and never touched a gas pedal.

On the SART...

...heading toward the ceremonies.

Arrival at the SART ceremonies
Jonathan gave the Golden Spoke Celebration Thank You poster to Steven Christiansen who presented a copy to both Riverside and San Bernardino thanking them for finishing the trail in time for Bike Month in May, which they did even though the official ceremonies did not happen until June 30th!

Ran into old friend Todd Regalado of The Burrito Project and the film Hunger in the City.

Jonathan got Bill Savage (who'd surfed Trestles that AM) and a bunch of mountain biking godfathers to sign a "Save Trestles for the Whales" t-shirt. Jonathan plans to ride his mountain bike to Trestles and present the shirt to the Save Trestles folks.

Tools of the trade
After our valet shift, we caught the last Metrolink to 'Berdoo and rode home to Redlands.

You guys rock! Thanks for the support. Glad you guys could make it out to the event and do the whole thing soley on kinetic energy. I finally got everything done, so KLUNKERZ should be available at your local bike shop soon, or at www.klunkerz.com, and don't forget to sign the 'guest book'.
Ride on,
Billy
Billy, next step is to Mountain Bike from the IE to the SEA to SAVE TRESTLES and give that t-shirt you and your bros signed to the Surfriders!! Thanks for everything you do - glad we can get a DVD for movie night this year - you should drop by if you are in town.
