May 3rd Race for the Cure + Old Salem

Over 10,000 people signed up for this year’s “Race for the Cure” 5K and 1 mile race in Winston-Salem, NC. A beautiful day and I brought my camera. My girlfriend and mom ran the 5K, I spectated with my camera. I took about 150 pics and here are some of my favorites:

Pink and white are the support color for Breast Cancer awareness


8:00 in the AM, people are getting ready to run in historic downtown





Even our four-legged friends are showing up


Security was tight


But they were just overwhelmed by the shear amount of people





Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs


Police escorted the runners on BMW R1200RTP's, very nice


But they were still squids


Runners, on your MARKS!!


GO!!!


Quit taking pictures of me, creep



The young raced


And the old



The determined


and the sweaty


They were all having a blast


But she was still waiting for her favorite to show up


Our four-legged friends were even doing well


All ran for those who did, and those who didn't



Old Salem. No real story, just some fun pics.

Water


Factory (not really historic, or in Old Salem but I like it)










This is a "living history" place




The British are coming!!


Well, back to city life

I've marshaled bike rides in the past on my old RT (lighter than the RTP but
otherwise the same). You can definitely hoon it up on one
