Midtown House Tour

From Rotten Ralph…

The Coasters had fun at the 40th anniversary walking tour. Steve, Larry, Barbara & Ralph showed up with a few Bicycle treasures and road up and down the streets all day. Met quite a few people & were really appreciated by the “Historic Midtown Citizens Association”. We are definitely invited back next year. For those of you that didn’t make it this year. Please plan to next year. The houses were absolutely gorgeous. It was just a wonderful way to enjoy Wichita & your Bicycles !!

Ride In The 2012 Historic Midtown Tour

Volunteer to simply ride around on your antique bicycle for a couple hours during the tour and you’ll receive a free admission ticket. The streets will be closed to vehicular traffic so it’s a great way to tour the area plus with your free admission you’ll get to see inside some of Midtown’s magnificent old homes. Check in at the Fairview Christian Church, 1650 north Waco and tell them you’re with the Coasters bicycle Club. Antique bicycle only please.
October 13th 11:00am – 5:00pm. October 14th 1:00pm – 5:00pm.
