Third Annual Ride for Jim (2010)

The local Ride for Jim Block Party and Final Ride have become a fun if not grueling annual event. This was my third year and it was nice to see it grow from the 13 final riders in 2008, to the 80 plus riders this year.
Jim's Story

King Williams Dare Devil Nora does the tree climb, while Susu and Mike discuss what really is under those Kilts at the block party.

Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling

From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the flowers are dying
'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide.
