This type of activity - involving 2 wheels and a set of pedals, is one that this writer looks forward to with much anticipation. Equipment and apparel have to be sorted out and ready a few weeks earlier and muscles have to be toned and strong for the long ride.
A day prior to this event, the youngest member of "Team Moreno" started coughing, which threatened to derail her chances of participating. She was immediately started on antibiotics and the next day she confidently declared that she was good and strong. Nothing can stop her from this auspicious ride.
Team Moreno - at Rama IV road beside Chitralada Palace before
the start of the ride.
identical bikes and smiles
a cruiser blocks the road to allow the VIPs to pass first before we could join the main crowd. This is just one block from the starting point.
all kinds of bikes and attitudes brought together for this memorable tribute to the king.

at the Ratchaprasong junction were the recent bombing took place
approaching Siam Paragon
This is how quiet it was before the bikers descended en masse.
Siam Paragon reverberating with chants and cheers
this rider was soaking in the fun like she owned the road
taking the route back home while the rest of the riders turn right to complete the 29 kilometers.
note the pavement.... extra smooth - with a new layer of asphalt done just for this event.
Phayathai road deserted and free for pedestrians. Team Moreno heads back home with a lot of memories.
some clouds kept the heat of the midday sun from scorching us and at the same time presenting a spectacular show of God's amazing glory. Thank you Jesus!
