Day # 231 High Wheel Racing

Glanced at the Frederick Post before work this morning and on the front page was an article about a High Wheel Bike Race at 4:30. I saw one of these bikes in the Damascus parade in July and knew it would be fun. Streets were closed down and traffic was horrendous for those unaware of the event. The race was an hour long around and around and around about a four city block. The blocks were lined with spectators watching the fifteen or so cyclist. I walked around the whole block taking pictures. Bob followed never losing sight of me which was a good thing since I had no idea where he was and would never have found him in that crowd.
