Ride and Birthday Miles

Ok all you adventurous gals!  This week is Pam's birthday miles (and Leane's as well, but she's one mile older than I am.)  We will begin our ride at 9:00 from the Southway Boat Launch Parking lot.  That means, be there at 8:45 and we leave at 9, lest there be confusion.  What am I talking about?  There's ALWAYS confusion, right?
 
The plan is to do the Lindsay Creek Loop.  My logs say it usually takes us about 2 hours, so about 11:00 we'll swing back by the parking lot.  We'll still need to add on.... um..... about 29 more miles.  If any of you want to join us later, that will work as well.  The second half should be flatter --maybe upriver or Asotin Creek.
 
Thanks to Helen for a lovely lunch and party last week.  It's always a joy to get together with the Crazies.  We rode out to Asotin, stopped to see Sandie who is recuperating from surgery.  She gives new meaning to "black and blue."  :)  It was fun meeting Kathy from Michigan who was a trooper on her mountain bike.  I'm sure she'd put us all to shame if she could get us out on the trails in Michigan though. 
 
All rides will begin at 9:00 from now on. 
 
See you Wednesday, either at 9 or 11ish.

Lunch on Wednesday

Don't forget..... this Wednesday we meet at Helen's house (1544 Hillcrest Way, Clarkston) at 10:30 for a great ride before Leane's retirement celebration lunch.  If you can't ride, just come for lunch.  Please RSVP Helen so she'll know how many are coming.  :)

See you Wed.

Ride May 7th!!!

Last Wednesday Helen and Marcia took a chilly ride up Asotin Creek.  Seems like Wednesday wasn't the nicest day of the week.  Hope you got out on some of those warmer days and got in some miles. 
 
Helen and I did the Evans Loop ride on Thursday and successfully changed a flat with a CO2 cartridge.  We felt so proud! 
 
Julie and Leane returned from their West Coast adventure.  From the pictures they sent over it looks like they summited at 500 ft.  I was kinda bummed because up until now I held the lowest summit record with 656 feet at Clatsop Crest near Astoria.  I think they enjoyed the wine, too.   
 
 
 
 
This week we ride at 10:30 from the Southway Boat Launch parking lot.  Meet at 10:15 for a 10:30 departure.  Watch for any of the new ladies. We hope you join us.  :) 
 
Next week is the retirement luncheon for Leane.  Remember to RSVP  Helen by Wed. so she can get the pizza.  We will leave from Helen's house at 10:30 and return there for lunch. 
 
May 21st we are moving our ride time up to 9:00..... weather permitting.  Come on Spring!!!
