Fort Clastsop Ride a Success!

We had an awesome ride on Saturday! Agnes and I drove out together and were very pleased to see that Helen and Lesley were waiting for us. The weather was so nice that I could hardly believe it was still February. We all made it to Fort Clatsop in good time, and decided to ride on to Netul Landing for a break. At that point I was very pleasantly surprised to hear that everyone wanted to push on further, and we ended up making our way down to Logan Road, and then back to the cars; a 22 mile ride in all! I was proud of Lesley who came out for her maiden voyage on her new Trek, especially considering that I remember her saying that she didn't think she would be ready for a 20 plus mile ride! Well, she did it, hills and all. Good for her. Helen did well also, and what a great way to cross train for that marathon, eh? Anyway, we all tossed around some ideas for our next ride, so if anyone has any suggestions let me know. I'll plan another ride for some time next month.

By the way, I think that if I'm going to fit in with this group I'll need to come up with some sort of an accent. Something from this continent to really round us out...so, I was thinking I'll start slowly phasing in a southern drawl.
