It was tons o' fun...thank you again Salsa and DH Salsa...Mimi and RaleighDon for yummy smoothies and pies, oh my!
Great to meet BikerHen and her dancing Chick too! BikerChick had the camera, so we all made sure to assemble for pic before leaving...Wahine and Bruno (not to slight anyone else who couldn't attend this time) - you will see that you were with us in spirit, f'sure...wait and see...
Not sure if the BikerHen and Chick had to take the "scenic route via Portland" again to return home; if so, maybe they stopped at the Handmade bike show?
Next time, hopefully the weather will cooperate and we can all ride together...
Tailwinds!

We had many Wahines and some Brunos in the picture. But we sort of zoned on picture-taking, so we only have, like...one...and it all rests on BikerHen and BikerChick to post it.

Still no word from bikerhen and chick? Oh I hope they are okay. I wish they would pop in and say that they are back home safe and sound.
And the weather is supposed to be nice Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and maybe even into Monday! Oh I do hope so! We ladies (and gents) in the pacific northwest need a break! I get so depressed looking at all the wonderful sunny pictures posted in bike journal.
We did get to go over the pass on the way home, much quicker than detouring through Portland!The snow at the top of the Pass was quite impressive, clear up to the bottom of the big highway signs and totally covering the smaller roadway signs. A few of the offramps looked like tunnels. We took some pictures but had a big semi on our tail so couldn't slow down too much.
Haven't had a chance to download any of the photos. The chick is in charge of photos and she wasn't home last night and is going out again tonight. But I promise I'll nail her down either in the morning or tomorrow night for sure. Sorry to be so photo posting challenged. The chick has walked me through the process but I do it so infrequetly I forget.bikerHen
