Registration table. Well organized and friendly volunteers. I think the photographer was telling the clouds to go away.

Bonnie and Clyde ride
Local Hub Bicycle Co | www.ridespot.org
Dallas, Texas , United States Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow are both buried in Dallas and only a couple miles apart from each other. The ride starts at Local Hub and heads towards Bonnie’s final resting place, Crown Hill Cemetery. Bonnie’s mother is also buried here, but only Bonnie has a marker. Next stop is Star Filling Station and Barrow Residence on the corner of Borger and Singleton. Clyde is buried a short distance away at Western Heights Cemetery. The cemetery has no trespassing signs posted and is rarely open to the public. Clyde’s grave is located on the West side close to the street. The ride continues back through downtown until you get to Hargroves Cafe located at 3308 Swiss Circle. Bonnie supposedly worked here January 1928-Spring 1929.
Looking for something fun to do today. How about a self guided Bonnie and Clyde history bicycle ride. Rent some bikes and see Dallas history. https://t.co/mJ2urqny2a

April in Dallas
by Matt | cyclesinlife.com
I think I’ve decided April in Dallas is my favorite month here. The weather is so good most days I stop and comment on it. There is a pretty bad storm once a week or so but other than that April is pretty rad. I’ve spent more time on my road bike than a mountain bike out of convenience. It’s easier to fit close road rides in with my work schedule and there have been a few days where the trails were wet. The amazing crew at DORBA do an astonishly good job at keeping the …
