SUMMARY:Benno Boy Mini Memorial Ride

DESCRIPTION:At this point it’s pretty much official that the wonderful 
 Benno Boy has ridden his last ride.\n\nLast Saturday the 28th of June 
 Benno Boy hit the Godzilla\,King Kong and Gigantor of Potholes at SE 39th 
 and Stark on the way to @biteonbelmont.\n\nAfter 22755 Miles and 8 
 wonderful years of Riding all over Portland Oregon\, nearly 1000+ Group 
 Bike Rides and probably around 300-400 Ride Leads during Pedalpalooza and 
 Afterpalooza plus probably 2000 rides to Portlands Food Carts his frame 
 gave up the ghost.\n\nI’m very sad to say Goodbye to my trusty steed as he
  had become a huge part of who I am.\n\nThere will be a memorial ride to 
 say goodbye and to welcome his successor on Wednesday August 13th (Mini 
 Version) and Saturday August 23rd (Full Version)\n\nThank you to all the 
 incredible bike mechanics for keeping him running since he was purchased 
 from The eBike Store May 4th 2017 you are heroes of the highest 
 order.\n\nFYI - many of Benno Boys parts will live on in his 
 successor.\n\nThank you #bennoboy you will be missed.\n\nBenno Boys 
 official last Bike Summer Ride Lead was the #BonbRelay on Friday June 
 27th.\n\nFYI - what does this ride include?\n\nIf you know me my rides are
  equal parts of the following:\n\nGetting Lost (Get Lost Rides)\nCool 
 Streets (Streets that are not straight)\nCoolness or Hidden Portland Rides
