7960399684?profile=originalAbout 850 riders took part in the 23rd annual Frank Stark Bicycle Ride on July 15. Frank Stark was an airline pilot who was forced to retire after quadruple bypass surgery and two heart attacks. Starke, who died in 1999 at the age of 70, took up cycling as rehab and worked up to the point that he would ‘ride his age’ every year on his birthday. Tim Stepien/The Coastal Star
