The 4th of July and we had our own fireworks on the ride. One Tramp flipped her bike going downhill and did a face plant on the side of the road. She was going downhill on a shaded secondary road wearing sunglasses and didn’t see this humongous dip/bump and lost control of the bike and over the handlebars she went. No broken bones but plenty of abrasions and 6 stitches to stop the bleeding from a severed artery in her inside upper lip. She was one lucky lady and is now recovering nicely.

It was very fortunate to have the immense help of our fellow tramps, especially Carl who rode like a demon to get his car to take the victim back to the parking lot. Thanks to Bobbette and Richard for leading the bike and to everyone else for their support.

We can’t forget Al who showed us a historic aqueduct.
