A police chase early Saturday morning came to an abrupt end inside Tom Sawyer Bicycle Shop at the corner of Broadway and Mt Vernon. The building suffered some damage but they were still open for business via the back door.

Just as planned we met up at River City Brewery for a brew and then headed over to Heartland Cycles for the Bendix Automatic Clinic put on by Byron of Heartland Bicycle and Bob of Harley's Bicycles in Hutchinson. A dozen of us watched as Bob tore apart both a Yellow and a Red band automatic hub, explaining the inner workings of each and the causes and fixes of the most common problems with these hubs. It was both an informative and entertaining clinic. Being the bike geeks we are we bombarded Bob with all kinds of questions relating to the bicycle industry which he gladly answered.
Big thanks to both Byron and Bob and Larry for setting this up for us.
Please check out both Heartland Bicycle and Harley's Bicycles. Harley's bicycles is one of the oldest if not the oldest bicycle shop in the state of Kansas.

A few Coasters volunteered to display their bikes today as part of Boy Scout troop 726's Blue and Gold Banquet at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton church. Their theme was Cycling Through The Years, 100 Years of Scouting. There were 7 of us there showing 16 bikes. We had a good time and the boys seemed to really enjoy the bikes. Thanks Gina for inviting us and thanks to those who participated.

I received the following e-mail from Gina who organized the banquet...

I can't tell you how many people told me how wonderful it was to see your awesome bikes - I can never thank you enough on behalf of the entire Pack 726 at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton for making our Blue & Gold Banquet so wonderful and memorable!!
