Speaker Series - "I Remember Wellfleet: Wellfleet on Wheels"

  • Wellfleet Public Library 55 W Main Street Wellfleet, MA 02667 USA (map)

Wheels mean freedom. When was you first bike and first car? Where'd you get them? And where did newfound freedom take you? Join Dwight Estey for another hour of "I Remember Wellfleet." Everyone must have a story to share about wheels and how they defined us.

What was it like to cruise Wellfleet? Who had the coolest wheels? What is a "woods car" and a "tide ride?* Then there's that other set of wheels, roller skates, which were all the rage fifty years ago.

Just a few of the other possible topics are:

Police cars, garbage trucks and street sweepers

The bike trail and "the gauntlet"

Left hand turns in summer

Tow hitch tails

Driving on the beach and back roads

Bring your story and be prepared to laugh about the high jinks and troubles wheels got us into. Masks Encouraged
