Pride Parade (since 1970).
One of the world's largest sexual diversity pride events. Last Sunday in June. This year was Andrew's fourth (non-consecutive) year skating the parade, previously with Lambda Legal. But this year I was crazy excited about joining Rat Patrol, Pussycat Patrol, Hells Satans, and Environmental Encroachment's outing, and it was FANTASTIC!!! These people are so real, and creative, and bright and complicated, and lushes like me. We fielded dozens of show bikes, a sound wagon, and a band (several of whom came on skates)! The crowd really loved us. We started hours late and had several heavy downpours en-route.
