June in Manayunk

Manayunk had two fun events during June, the first a bike race that went through part of the city. Fun to watch, the race had cyclists from the US and Europe, including teams from the Tour de France.

Here's a picture from the race:

The course was 156 miles, and took six hours to cover in unbearably hot weather; someone measured 120 degrees on the road.

The second event was an arts festival. There were photographs, paintings, jewelry, and ceramics in booths set up along several blocks of Manayunk's Main Street. Such pretty wares!
