It was a muggy morning as cyclists began to ride up to the outside patio of Pedal Haus Brewery in Tempe on Saturday.
Chief operating officer of the brewery, Chris Purcell, welcomed bicyclists as he got things ready for the start of the ride, which was set to start at 6 a.m. Pedal Haus was one of the several companies that hosted a benefit ride for the bicyclists who were injured during the Show Low bike crash in June.
On June 19, a man drove his truck against traffic and into a pack of about 30 bicyclists who were part of the Bike the Bluff race in Show Low, Arizona.
