Alder Caroline Smith joins East Rock School's bike club.
As temperatures dropped and a bitter wind bore down on Tuesday afternoon, a few dozen cyclists suited up in jackets and gloves, and filled the streets leading to East Rock Park. Coursing down Livingston Street, they breezed past Willow and Canner, hooked right onto Cold Spring, and circled back to Eagle, where their three-mile journey had begun.
The ages of the speedsters? Nine and 10 years old.
