After the merging of YouTube and Google+ (I’ll spare you the details) I found it would be easier for me to manage our channel if I started from scratch creating a new one. So after days of sorting through and uploading videos I think the new channel is ready for prime time. You can visit our new channel here https://www.youtube.com/user/CoastersBicycleClub. Please subscribe and check out some of the 132 videos that document all the great times we’ve had.
Thank you!
I’m in the process of making changes to the Coasters YouTube channel and while sorting through 100s of videos I came across this one I don’t believe I ever shared. It’s just a couple of clips of those that braved the cold and rode at our New Years Day Dinner and Ride back in 2013.
12 showed up for our 7th annual New Years Day pot-luck dinner and ride. We had a nice time, a lot of good food and a cold (windchill 11), short bike ride. Adam & Dave’s ride being longer as they rode down from Wichita. Thanks to all who made it out.
Photos from the ride…
Someone shared this photo of the cover of The Wichitan magazine from 1978 which evidently had an article on bicycling in it.
Great weather and a good turn-out for last night’s 7th annual Christmas Lights Cruise. In addition to viewing the lights and hitting a couple of pubs, we also celebrated a couple of Coasters birthdays. You know there’s something special about the evening when Mark wears shoes. Thanks to everyone for participating.
Thursday, December 19th. Meet at the Shamrock Lounge.
We’ll need to leave the Shamrock no later than 8:00pm. The Lights On St Paul closes at 9:00pm.
Also they take donations so bring some cash if you’d like to donate.
Decorate your bike – wear an ugly Christmas sweater.
