Blessing of the Bicycles

Quincy bicyclists gathered on Sunday, July 20 at Union Congregational Church, Rawson Road, Wollaston for a blessing of their bicycles by Pastor Jack Swanson (seated in the middle of the photo – pastor of Union Congregational) and Pastor Nathan Pipho (third from left – President of Quincycles and pastor of Good Shepherd Lutheran Church).  After receiving a blessing, participants took a four mile ride through Wollaston before returning to the church for a cook out hosted by the church.   The event was held in partnership with Quincycles and served as our monthly “Easy Rider Ride” for bicyclists either new or returning to bicycling.
