AUGUST
10, 2007 --
A city park,
a few blocks up River Avenue from Dugout,
has a layout for skateboarders and bikes.
Last July, while in Cleveland briefly, LPR
watched BMX athletes practice on the Lake Erie
shorefront, for the Cleveland stop on the AST Dew
Tour.

The tour includes
BMX and skateboard competition, televised by NBC Universal. Competitors,
like MLB pitchers, reach into the 40's. LPR is not
aware that the exploits of these athletes are termed
feats of "derring-dew." [Sorry.] |
