Last Saturday was the Kickstands’ initiation ride. It was awesome. The Kickstands are an Elgin bike gang started by one of my friends–click here for our myspace page. (Click here to support us in raising money for cancer research in Elgin’s Walk & Roll.)

First we met at my place and began prepping a silk screen for group patches while eating some snacks. Next up, the ride!
We rode for about two hours, but didn’t go too far. First it was North on the bike trail to the Elgin castle where we stopped to take a group photo.
Next was South to Festival Park, where we rode around in circles like maniacs and then played on the equipment.
Next was East to Lords’ Park, where we rode around then stopped to sit on the playground and chat. Last was to another friend’s place, where we finished off with a barbecue.

If you look closely you can see one of the Kickstands’ patches on her bag.
Become friends with us on myspace and join us next time! This is just the beginning!
