Little Red Riding Hood in Utah

[Lifesgreat]

Last year, there was a sign saying the 2006 Little Red was going to have some type of costume thingy. Don't rush out and make your tech fabric cape yet as I think it would be good to wait until bbtc announces the details. Just wanted to tell you of that possibility.

Hmm, I don't remember this sign! On the other hand, I'm not the type to wear a costume for 100 miles so it just got lost in the open space between my ears. Anything that flaps drives me bonkers. I'm thrilled in the winter when I can stick my wind vest under a kodiak cycling jacket.

I liked the costumes the guys were wearing. The grass skirts were particularly "in the theme." I guess LLRH likes to vacation in a tropical oasis.

i thought some of the ladies in the ride pics had capes and stuff on? along the lines of the cinderella ride!

i think it's a cute idea... just not sure i'd want to wear a cape for 100 miles! especially if it was a windy day!

i noticed another ride promoting costumes.. the mardi gras ride in ventura!

I didn't see any costumes last year but there may have been. The 100 milers split off from everyone else fairly early and there were only 75 of us, so there wasn't a large sampling of riders to see. Oh, the roads were so crowded!

We did start to pick up metric riders at the end of the day, but I still didn't see any costumes. I want Bubba to "officially" volunteer so he can get a "Big and Bad" T-shirt.

hmmmmm maybe i'm remembering wrong then! maybe i'm confusing cinderella pics with LRRH pics?
