This Bud's for You: 9 July

"I wish we' started in a rush

So, if it got too much

We'd think we're at a fine and normal pace...

It must be July 'cause I only wanna ride with my hair down

And listen to the sound of people on the town..."

(Greene, Furlong, Booth, Woofford, Dubray)

It is July now, and almost a full three years since last I stalked around the finish of the weekly Bud's Ride, just waiting to snap a few pics of the charge to that white painted line across Puddingstone Drive. I didn't know what to expect - would anyone be there? and if so how many? was the ride even still going on? Well...

turns out three years is a long time, yet also not that long, and nothing much has changed. Maybe a few new people have come, and a few old people have gone, but in all sense of appearance, the Bud's Ride is still the Bud's Ride, and tonights This Bud's for You, goes to the man in the plain wrap kit:
