INDYCOG pal, Gnat, volunteered at our table for the NITE Ride this past weekend and took some great photos of the event.

One day last spring, I put on a helmet, climbed on my bike, and rode to work with a co-worker. For some people, that wouldn’t be all that unusual. But for a guy who had only recently gotten on a bike after more than 15 years away from two-wheelers, it was monumental. I quit riding [...]
