Ed's 80th Birthday Party
 |
More than 50 people helped SCCCC member extraordinaire Ed Kilduff celebrate his
80th birthday on Aug. 30 at the Corralitos home of Emilie Holder. Bicyclists rode either a 40k or 80k route designed by Leo Moll, then celebrated with a chicken dinner after the ride. Ed's three daughters and their families traveled from Fresno for the occasion. |
