I fell short of my goal of 400 miles for September. Not by much, but enough. Weather was crappy, I had other stuff to do, and I just didn’t feel like it. If I had my act together, I would have organized myself a trip to Walla Walla to do the wine ride there, but no.
The year’s goal is 5,000. That’s an average of around 250 a month. That should be easily do-able, if I would stop typing and go throw my shorts on already!
If the long-range forecast looks reasonable, I will drag Terri to Ellensburg next weekend for the Manastash Metric. The 13th we’re co-leading a Newcomer’s ride here in Kent, then on Sunday the 14th is the brewery ride I’m co-leading from the Issaquah Brewhouse. Between these rides and (hopefully) a little peer pressure to ride in the evenings, I’m hoping for at least 300 miles in October.

Regardless of what the website states about no rain for 13 consecutive years, I can personally attest to reain two years ago on the Manatash Metric Century.
Scenic ride though. I may join you.

I did this ride three or four years ago. True to their promise, there was no rain. There was, however, a strong wind with gusts up to 30mph. I asked the locals if the wind was unusual, and they said “no”.
I’ll take the Kitsap Color Classic (the next day), any time.

Saturday in E-burg: 60 degrees, partly cloudy, 10% precip., 9mph winds
Sunday in Kitsap: 58 degrees, cloudy, 60% precip., 8mph winds
True about the general windy-ness around Ellensburg, as they are going to be building more wind-generators in that area. I’m longing for some different scenery, however, so I’m heading east.
