Another big group on the ride today. We re-visited the Bicycle Church en route to the quirky Rattlesnake Bridge. The Rattlesnake Bridge is a bike/pedestrian overcrossing designed to look like a rattlesnake. One end of the bridge includes the head of the snake and the other side of the bridge includes the rattle (including realistic sound effects as you pass through that end of the bridge. Of course, the body is designed to replicate the body of the snake.
Later, we all journey over Gate's Pass with some strenuous climbing en route to the interesting and informative Sonora Desert Museum. This museum features the flora and fauna typically found in this part of the country. We learned more than you will likely ever need to know about Gila Monsters and Rattlesnakes.
Later, we enjoyed a free-flight demonstration of raptors feeding and prey capturing behavior before heading back to the hotel for happy hour and dinner.
