Description
This will be part one of the research rides for Bridgeport and Armour Square. Rides one and two divide the two communities in half, and consist of site inspection, photo documentation and notating of a wide variety of pre-determined sights. Part three examines missed sites, sites that are on-the-bubble, and starts working on route planning. Part four is the pre-ride, and involves tweaking the route for traffic flow and detours necessary to avoid bad road conditions, or improve the angle of entry on various sites.
Attendees of research rides can earn $5 off the price of admission to the paid rides, and can earn free rides by volunteering to be a ride marshal on the day of the event, in addition to the research ride participation. Research Rides are opportunities to address intersections and traffic flow concerns to future ride marshals.

I am going to give it a go Serge....can't say I am holding out a lot of hope that it will be great for taking shots, but any day is a great day to bike around and check out a neighborhood, so yes, I do plan on going.
Foolish or not!

I'll be there by bike time (5:15) and we'll go as long as/if we get good shots. out here in Jeff Park, it is cloudy and dull, but I'm meeting Mike at New City around 4:30 and biking down from there. Cheers.
