June 29

Dave got a wonderful idea. We could go to the Ashland science museum ScienceWorks on the same trip as the Klamath Falls race since we would be relatively close to Ashland anyway. So I contacted the director, who gave enthusiastic approval.

As luck would have it, this was the same weekend as a biking event they were having. And our vehicles would fit the theme nicely. She was even enthusiastic that we wanted to give rides on our contraptions.

Before we gave rides there was a guy who put on a show centered around bikes. He was very entertaining, and very good on bikes. Bikeing demo Bikeing demo Bikeing demo Bikeing demo
