River Ride not dampened by rains
Despite threatening skies -- and an eventual downpour -- about 120 participants took part in the second annual River Ride on Saturday, July 12.
Beginning in Miamisburg, the 14-mile ride featured five different destination points. Riders stopped at the Great Miami Outfitters, the Gebhart Tavern Museum and Rice Field in Miamisburg and then on to the old log cabin post office and one of the Erich Henn murals in downtown Franklin. At each location, riders picked a playing card. When they returned to registration, they played their hand and the best poker hands won gift cards to roll: bike shop at The Greene:
Pat McCreary, first place, $300 gift card
Ronnee Flynn, second place, $100 gift card
Robert Taylor, third place, $100 gift card
There was music by Fly 92.9, pizza from Ron's Pizza, a bike clinic and a good -- if not soggy -- time. Watch this space for upcoming event photos in the future.
