Cycle Chic...big success
As mentioned a few days ago my friend Kristan organized a Charleston Cycle Chic ride for the ladies. She put this thing together in the insanely short period of two weeks. I would have bet big money not more than 8-10 folks would show up. Shows what I know. With the organizational help of Twitter the word spread fast and there ended up being over 50 folks on the ride, mostly ladies dressed to the nines--the most high heels King Street has seen on Friday at noon in years.
Okay, everything didn't go perfect. Toward the end of the 4 mile ride a couple of the ladies decided to take a short-cut back to work and a bunch of the folks followed them. We got a little scattered out. This ended up being kind of cool and seemed to fit the spirit of the event.
