Gearing up for the Tour de Houston
Last week Mayor White announced that the second annual Tour de Houston will be held March 18th:
Mayor Bill White joined State Sen. Rodney Ellis, Mayor Pro-Tem Carol Alvarado and title sponsor Guaranty Bank today in announcing the routes for the 2nd annual Guaranty Bank Tour de Houston bicycle ride benefiting Houston parks on Saturday, March 18, 2006.
“This event has become a tradition for anyone who wants to come out and have a great ride through our beautiful city. It's a chance to see our diverse neighborhoods in a fun and different way,” said Mayor White.

The inaugural Guaranty Bank Tour de Houston drew more than 2,500 riders last year and, as an official recommended ride for the upcoming BP MS 150, has already become a popular Houston cycling classic.
I'm amused. It's the second one and the city is calling it a tradition and a cycling classic!
Anyway, best of luck to everyone who participates, including (I'm sure) Houston bicyclist Bob Stein.
Wear your helmets! Watch out for the Danger Train!
