Sept 7 Hike Bike & Paddle Louisville


Louisville residents headed outside for this hug event on Labor Day. Although I never saw the runners, I did see many paddlers - 249 boat I counted. From single person kayaks and paddle boards to 16 man canoes. Their day began with a roll contest. Two contestants tied for first place. They held three run off rolls and each time they came up even. Can you do 7 rolls in 15 seconds? They looked tires. 



At 10am the boats launched and head down the Ohio to a lock. All boats were to enter the lock and it was lowered at 11:30. They continued on to New Albany IN. 


The cyclists headed in the same direction on city street and then back to the starting location. I saw all sorts of bikes out there. It looked like everyone had fun, except for the folks trying to drive around the city.
