Superior Halloween witches ride
On the night before All Hollow's Eve, the Mineral County Rec Club sponsored its first ever no host Halloween Witches Ride. Bicyclers were encouraged to meet at Eva Horning Park in Superior right before dusk with their witch costumes and decked out bikes. Lights and brooms were attached and the group departed for a playful pedal around town in their outfits. For its inagural "flight" the witches who attended enjoyed themselves and hope to see the event grow more each year. (Mineral Independent/Amy Quinlivan)
