Today was the much-anticipated Kenton Street Fair. The weather was threatening to ruin it with rain and hail, and she didn't disappoint, but Dianne and I managed to 'dodge squalls' and get on our bike for her maiden voyage.
Dianne purchased a blue Schwinn Twinn tandem bike, circa 1969, from the Chicago area and had it shipped here to PDX. She's a beauty and has received loads of praise from our Belligerante friends. We didn't think we'd get the chance to ride her yesterday, based on circumstances that were out of our hands, but in the end we worked our way through it and got the bike and rode her down to the fair in one of the few glorious doses of sunshine to be had between downpours and hail. All in all, a really fun day of biking and drinking beer with our friends.
