41st Annual Moonlight Ramble in St. Louis

Sunday, August 21, 2005

Today's St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported on the 41st annual Moonlight Ramble, which took place early this morning:

Three hours before the start of the 41st annual Moonlight Ramble bicycle ride through St. Louis and the near western suburbs, Todd Mernin was already in the upper Muny parking lot in Forest Park.

Mernin, 39, was visiting from New Braunfels, Texas, on a house-hunting trip for a move to St. Louis. An outdoor enthusiast and a bit of a night owl, Mernin read about the Moonlight Ramble and reasoned that the annual ride was his kind of event. He said he planned to toss around his glow-in-the-dark Frisbee with some fellow riders while waiting for the 12:01 a.m. start time.

"I love doing (stuff) at night," he said. "I'm going to enjoy this, I'm sure."
