The thought of me doing that makes me want to throw up. The thought of Susan doing that makes me gush with admiration!

Looking forward to reading the ride report.

I just saw that your gut is "revolting." Sending you positive vibes. Go Susan!!!

Life goes by pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, and do whatever you want all the time, you could miss it.

I totally agree- couldn't have said it better myself. I'm so amazed and impressed. The thought of 200 miles in the saddle makes my bits shrivel up and fall off- I can NOT imagine over 600 miles! Originally Posted by spindizzy

all downhill from here :-)
here is a link to the route - click on the "summary" tab to see the profile. Susan has already been up to Hofstadt, highest point up Mt St Helens, and is on her way back down - her tweet about 11:15 said "475 mi. Toledo again. St helens was socked in. 150 to go."

Go Susan!!! You're almost done, and it's mostly downhill the rest of the way!!
