The pass was open and it was the first nice Saturday of the season.

I'll be heading up north after YFO with Brian/festar in tow... don't have a firm plan yet but probably out to the Oregon coast and then up into WA... will be staying with friends in Woodinville on Friday/Saturday nights... maybe a day ride in the area on Saturday or Sunday??

Maybe a cup and a hello while you are here, Woodinville is about 6mi.

 

[Tyler]

Thinking Saturday door a local ride. Any takers?

Also, will be visiting Olympic National Park either tomorrow or Friday. Any suggestions on must see things?

 

[Panman]

This is a nice coastal drive coming up from the Oregon coast.

+1 on the Cape Flattery Light House. The Cape is the coolest thing on the Oly Pen and Hwy 112 is not far behind.

Cape Flattery Photo from August 2008 along with a story from the local newspaper.

Sorry I didn't make YFO and will not be able to participate in a ride this week. Family life is taken an evil turn and I need to support my wife.

 

[Tyler]

Will miss seeing you, Jim, but totally understand and it's the right thing to do!

Will take a day off the bike on Saturday. Anyone up for a local ride on Sunday? Will be staying with Fred and Lyndel on Sunday night in Wenatchee.
