I am glad that I decided to go on the ride tonight because it was definitely the best so far. As usual, even though I was 10 minutes late, I was the first person there so I took a few shots around the Broken Bridge. I also did a few timed shots of up to 25 seconds of the river rushing by, and Todos Santos church. None of the shots were done with a tripod.
Before we left, our leader co-opted some chicas from the nearby Nuna Restuarant to come and and pose with our bikes... It was a very good idea....
One couple from Guayaquil, Javier and Cristina, were joining us on their Vespa and they were very jovial and a lot of fun.
Then basically our Magnificent Seven rode to several churches for photo ops.
Another stop was at a disco where (for some reason) they wanted photos of a bunch of bikes inside their premises....
Before leaving I had also popped in to see Jesus at Big Kabuda's Taphouse to make sure that he would be open when we returned. He said he would is open from 4pm until midnight so I did manage to get the bike group to stop in at the end of our journey for a beer and a burger. Everybody was thrilled with the burgers and beer and the prices. Everything tastes better after a good jaunt in the outdoors.
I hope you enjoy the photos. That
was the day's excitement, Cheers, Al
