  1. On Wednesday, 6 October, we had the honor of organizing a ride for Mark
    Stephens who posts as Cokerhead on the RSU forum. Mark is a powerhouse,
    distance Coker rider from Tulsa, OK. We did an urban ride across the
    Ballard Bridge, through the waterfront parks to the downtown waterfront,
    back through the Magnolia neighborhood, down to and across the Hiram
    Chittenden Locks. We ended with a dinner at Burk's Cafe, a Cajun
    restaurant in downtown Ballard where Mark put a tablespoon of Dave's
    Insanity hotsauce on his food. Those of us familiar with habenero sauces
    know better and were thoroughly entertained by the results.

    We had an impressive, head turning herd of seven Cokers. The pilots were
    Mark Stephens, Irene Genelin, Pete Perron, John Childs, Tom Jackson,
    Steve DeKoekkoek, and myself. Seattle blessed us with excellent weather
    for some reason. Many photos were taken by people other than me.
    Hopefully they will post them here.

  3. I really want a coker so i could do some of these rides. I live less
    than a mile away from the locks. I don't think i could keep up on my
    little 20 inch torker

  4. Here's our group pic. I had to do a bit of photo-processing to bring
    out the riders. The original is back-lit and ended up being a
    silhouette.

  5. Steve started a gallery for his photos and John's 'HERE'
    (http://gallery.unicyclist.com/album353) . Maybe Irene will add hers to
    it. I would have caught the pigeon if Tom Jackson hadn't warned it of my
    approach.

  6. It was a good day had by all. I'm really glad that the weather
    cooperated with us. I posted a few pictures from the ride on my moblog:

    Mark, if you are ever in the area again, you know who to contact to
    Coker with!
