The Sunset Avenue Bike Week Event was not as well-attended as the Winterplace one...probably because there were 4 locations in Ocean City.
The ride out to OC was nice, we took back roads to avoid the Route 50 traffic. I had to wipe the bugs off my face after the rides there and back, so the next day I went back to Winterplace and scored a full-face helmet. Daytona Eclipse makes a matte black modular helmet that is the lightest I have ever tried. The glossy one weighs about 3 ounces more, I couldn't believe that such a small weight would make such a big difference! :shocked:
We saw Viking and Raccoon helmets

Jack Daniels had a bike there:

There was a really weird bass-ackwards trike there as well:

On the way home, we were stopped at a light and the woman on the bike next to me gave me a huge thumbs-up for having my son on the bike with me!
