Jingle Bell Jubilee Parade

Our Unicycle Support Group decided to ride in the Little Rock Christmas Parade this year.  Since we hadn't thought to register separately, we just rode with the cyclists from BACA.  But we all wore green shirts and we made a sign.  (We forced the non-unicyling member of the Vire family to carry the sign, and he handled the task with aplomb and grace once we removed most of the tinsel.)

The parade was fun.  I rode a bike with panniers to hold the green and red beads (leftover from Mardi Gras 2010) we passed out to the people we rode past.  Mitch and his kids and Mandy and Luke did stars and hopped around and played tag and were just generally goofy.  Since we were between a float sponsored by a windshield company (complete with a grumpy-looking old lady in a plywood sleigh) and a handful of Quakers with "Peace on Earth" signs, people enjoyed having something funny to watch.  The parade was a success and we'll do even better next year (when I can ride, too!)
