40th Moonlight Ramble hits St. Louis

Submitted by Brent Hugh on Wed, 08/25/2004 - 4:25pm
The Riverfront Times has an article about this year's Moonlight Ramble:
The annual nighttime bike ride through downtown St. Louis is the Gateway Council's (St. Louis' chapter of Hostelling International USA) largest fundraiser. This year marks the 40th anniversary of the two-wheeled classic. . . .

The Gateway Council has arranged for every building and institution (hint, hint) bordering the nineteen-mile route that dates back to 1904 to remain lit up until 3 a.m. This is a subtle, and no doubt beautiful, nod to the 1904 World's Fair, where electricity was a new development that dazzled fairgoers throughout that magic summer.

And even at the Ramble's conclusion, adventure is in the air. The ride ends at the City Museum, St. Louis' greatest current adventure, with an afterparty and continental breakfast courtesy of Saint Louis Bread Co.
