And it looks like the weather will be pretty decent too! :) Both rides 40 miles and one ride ends at the RAM at Kent Station for drinking, eating, and merriment! Oh I so love weekends like the one that is coming up.

I hope everyone else has some good rides planned.

First ride of weekend . . . WONDERFUL!

Chilly start (38 degrees) but bright sunshine, clear skies, warmed up into mid 50s. Perfect gorgeous autumn day.

What a perfect autumn day! Start was a bit chilly (38 degrees) but the sun was shining brightly, the sky was crystal clear, and it warmed up to a nice 55 degrees.

Moms, dads, and kids searching for the "perfect" pumpkin at Scholz Farm between Sumner and Orting.

Passing through the town of Orting there was some big festival going on. Lots of vendors, pony rides, food, and antique cars.

We got almost 50 miles in. We rode the Orting Trail then jumped off and got onto the road in South Prairie where we climbed up into Buckley. What beautiful low traffic roads to ride on and gorgeous scenic farmlands to view.

Tomorrow second weekend ride. Start from Ram at Kent Station to Black Diamond and back. :) I just love weekends like the one we are having right now. Take advantage everyone!
