The annual Crank It Up Festival was today and campaign volunteers had a blast participating in a bike tour of South Park.  The tour started at Cesar Chavez Park and was made up of people of all ages.  Bicyclists were in attendance from all over Seattle, including Mike McGinn.

We had a great time decorating our bikes, eating some delicious mango chicken tacos from Los Agaves and enjoying the mid-September sun.  The two emcees did a super job organizing the action, in English and in Spanish, and it was pretty exciting as the tour rolled out onto S Cloverdale St. 

We stopped in the shade of the South Park Community Center as a baseball game played out across the field and took another break at Duwamish Waterway Park.  A fellow bicyclist says that he saw a salmon jump out of the water, but all we saw was a splash!  Thanks for having us, it was a perfect way to spend a sunny Saturday afternoon.
