St. Patrick’s Day Parade 2008
We had a great day for our annual participation in Ottawa’s St Patrick’s Day Parade. While there is still an enormous amount of snow on the ground, the parade route was completely plowed free of snow. There was a bit of freezing ice pellets but it was breif and never turned into freezing rain. We even had a few snow flurries at the end of the parade. The centerpiece of our parade was a Greenspeed Tandem tadpole trike that was hauling a trailer that was set up as an Irish Bar. The rest of the human powered vehicles rode in circles around the rolling bar.
