Just like everything else that involves the bike bunch, this parade was a great time!
I believe there were 30+ bikes/participants.
Thanks Dan for organizing it this year and also to everyone who participated.

WOW! What a great turn out of bikes for the parade. We showed Wichita a variety of kool bikes from restored and unrestored classics, kool customs, choppers and rats, some big long tandems, those wild swing bikes, even a few regular family cruisiers some pulling tagalong bikes with the kids and trailers, and of course the dressed up bikes with exhaust pipes, bed pans, flowers, and the green pony. We were a big group having big fun. Everybody was wearing there smiles, but that is just the way the Coasters do it. And thats what were about, Kool People on Kool Bikes having Big Fun. It was good to see lots of new faces and always good to see the regulars. See you all on Thursday and we will do it again. Ride on.

I had a blast. Years ago when we started this thing I never thought we'd have this many people coming out for the parade and having a good time. It sure was good to get back on a bicycle and putt around with everyone. I wanted to thank Dan for all his work, Randy for his updates and everyone else who made sure I was feeling ok while riding. It's good to know people care and want me around...lol. I'm a bit sore in the legs today, but that's just because I've not been riding. Nothing else hurts, so that's a good sign. I'll be around riding in the next few weeks.

Let's ride some more during the River Festival. Just for Fun.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone had any photos from before the turn of the century of any Wichita bicycle clubs and i n particular of any bicycle repair shops. Our house (which is now the Delano Bed and Breakfast) was built by Morris Scho llenberger who was one of three brothers who owned the Schollenberger & Co. bicycle repair shop located at 230 N Main in Wichita. The brothers closed the [...]
