Bike Around the Bay

October 10 & 11 Bike Around The Bay The Bay Area

With a passion for cycling, Bob Stoke the Executive Director and his enthusiastic staff at the Galveston Bay Foundation (GBF) took on the task of hosting a 2 day bicycle ride around Galveston Bay.

The first ride in 2007 was very good, in 2008 the ride was cancelled because of Ike and instead the GBF went into clean up mode. Now in 2009, the ride was back on. Supported by Lyondellbasell, the ride started in Anahuac and ended at the Houston Raceway Park in Baytown. This year the ride was even bigger than the first; nearly 500 riders saddled up for this very scenic two day trek.

Listen in as Gayden Cooper of Lyondellbasell and Marie LaPlante tell Talk of the Bay about the first days ride. And Bob gives us a rundown of the second days course and our very own Kelly McGuire provides the entertainment for everyone.

Editors Note: Music by Kelly McGuire. The Great Bicycle Disaster from his award winning Boat in Belize CD. Thanks Kelly, see you soon.
