Just a fun bicycle weekend
No big events, no epic attempts at solo centuries. Just a casual, bicycle-centric weekend.
Sunday, I took Terri out for a little bit of an extended valley spin, with your’s truly deviating a couple of times to do some climbing at Cemetery Hill off Orillia Road, and the extended Macadam Loop in Tukwila. Terri is lovin’ the new bike.
Sunday I took Terri out to breakfast, then went for a short spin with “the guys”. Insert adolescent humor here:
Sunday night, we went to the Cirque du Soleil show Corteo. The show was great, as it has been the other three times we’ve been to Cirque. The “plot-line” of the show is the celebration of the life of a clown who has passed away. Not necessarily the happiest of topics, but his spirit rides into the afterlife on a bicycle. I should hope so.
Just over a week until the Ride of Silence. I hope you all can find a local version of this ride to attend and help honor those injured or killed by collisions with automobiles.
In two weeks, I’ll be riding day three of the Century Ride of the Centuries in Pendleton. I’m very much looking forward to this ride in Eastern Oregon, as it is always fun and very well supported. They still have some availability for this ride, but registration will close at the end of this week, and no on-site registrations will be taken this year. Get ‘em while they’re hot.
