twas a sad day the 27th of sept 06 in colorado.  during a hostage situation at Platte Canyon School a young Emily Keyes was killed as well as the suspect. 

yesterday, a charity ride was made with over 2,000 riders on only a weeks notice.  the ride went from columbine high school in littleton to platte canyon school.  you might remember several years ago columbine was also the site of a multiple homicide situation.

a beautiful day for a ride but a hard memory to swallow   :'(


here are some pix...

every one of the pics you see is probably only a 10th or 20th of the actual total bikes.
