Kathy Smith and Ralph Zuzolo continued their longstanding tradition of leading a Sunday afternoon social ride out to the Oliver Winery, with an informal picnic on the winery grounds before heading back to the park. As usual Mark Napier drove a sag vehicle so that riders could send a snack along with him or commission him to transport purchases back to Bryan Park.
About a dozen riders took part in this 25 mile round trip event on this cool August afternoon.
Gathering in Bryan Park
This shot doesn't do justice to the classic 1980s BBC jersey on the left!
Regrouping after the first crossing of Highway 37 at Kinser Pike.
We got fairly spread out, but eventually everyone made it to the winery.
One neat tidbit: Stan Ellis reported that a study showed that the three top reasons people visit Monroe County are
1. IU
2. Lake Monroe
are you ready?
3. Oliver Winery
We headed back home in a couple of different groups with some accepting a sag ride back to the park.
The scariest part of the whole trip was crossing a very busy Highway 37 FOUR TIMES. (Is this all because of the IU fall semester which opens in one week?)
