Who supplied all those cupcakes last night?

I almost forgot to post about yesterday's awesomely huge Tuesday Night Bike Ride. Did anybody count? Was it even possible to count? I think we were considerably over our previous record--which may have been last week.

The ride seems to slow down a lot once the numbers exceed two or three hundred riders (as easily was the case last night), but in some ways that makes it even more fun. At one point I was near the front and turned around to see an endless stream of bike lights that vanished way off in the distance.

The ride was short this week but it ended at a parking lot where some good samaritans had set up tables with cookies and cupcakes. I had a delicious chocolate cupcake, complete with an orange slice on top, and then went off to Che's Lounge for the after-ride party with the usual suspects.

Thank you anonymous bakers!
