Thanks for the great pics and narration. Many congratulations for a ride well done! What a pretty ride it is. Watch out for those Redmond clubers though, they might convince you to do RAMROD next year.

I just got back from a couple nights at MT. Rainier. We actually passed a couple cyclists headed towards Paradise. We hiked the Skyline but didn't ride. There is scant to no shoulder on the way up. I can't imagine how the cyclists do it there. The North Cascades is much wider in comparison.
