picture in the paper - grrr

[OakLeaf]

Today in one of the area papers there was coverage of GOBA - (a multi-day supported tour around the state). The story is very positive.

Trouble is, the first picture (the one that was picked up by other regional papers who ran the story) shows one rider well left of center and two others hugging the center line.

Whether or not that was safe at the time and place (impossible to tell from the picture and I don't know the road well), can't they even behave when there's a photographer present? This is just going to do wonders with the bike-hating motorists out there. I can't wait for the comments forum to get fired up.

Grrrrrrr.

Well......to the untrained eye.....maybe readers will think it was a closed course.

Speaking of pictures in papers, me and a bunch of other cyclists from Hudson/Marlborough, MA, doing the local MS Bike Ride got an article about us in the local paper. That's me on the far right.

That's me on the far right.

And apparently the more intelligent one. You have your helmet on.

So I can wear my helmet and look intelligent?
Even when I'm driving a car?

Helmets are the new eyeglasses

Uh no, you'd look like you have your seizure helmet on.

More hijack....
I used to do this ride all the time when it was the Great Mass Getaway (didn't know they changed the name). I rode with the Wolf Pack - great team, often in the top 3 or so fundraisers. Fun ride.
