Happy Easter to you east coasters!

I remember all too well the still cold mornings of spring out that way... gotta tell you, I don't miss 'em

Gonna be in the 70's here today (sorry!). The Easter Bunny's wearing flip-flops and swim trunks

I rode 43 miles, starting about 40 minutes before sunrise. It was about 30 degrees but I was well layered & really didn't feel it. Yesterday's snow is gone, the trail was almost deserted, and it was peaceful. Saw a fox and lots of bunnies. Unfortunately, the wind started picking up the last 15 miles, so I decided to come home (wind chill was in the 20s, and my legs are sick & tired of riding in strong winds). What is it with all this wind? It seems like I've been riding in strong, gusty winds since January!

Yeah, 28 degrees F here as well, with snow flurries and cloudy/breezy. But DH and I layered up good, kept pretty warm, had a good breakfast, and then did a wonderful hilly 2 1/2 hour ride! My legs are burning but they feel good and I didn't get all out of breath for a change.
Now we are home drinking giant mugs of hot cocoa with MANY large marshmallows on top.

Yup, it's Easter and i just finished a very hard 24 miles. we rode from Wenatchee to Leavenworth. we didn't take the straight hwy 2 route, instead we went along the ridges and climbed hills all the way to Leavenworth. Although the weather was nice, there was a @#$@ headwind. and this time i was not on the back of a tandem, i was on my Bianchi with those same legs that just did over 70 miles yesterday.

I have an inclinometer on my bike (analog, kind of like a level) and i have to tell you, it was almost ALL up hill. what seemed like level was 2% grades. then during some of the sparse downhills, the wind was giving us our money's worth.
the views were even better than yesterdays' so this evening i will share some glorious photos.

two of us did not feel like riding the entire 50 mile round and back, so we split. i rode to Leavenworth, she met us in her car there and then i drove back.

That was a serious workout. i'll give you the elevation gain stats later.
this time the wind DID NOT cooperate.

Happy Easter Everyone. This is the first Easter I remember going to church and seeing very few spring bonnets and bright colors. Everyone was dressed warm. Upper 40's here. but pretty outside-sunshine, where's my spring? it was here a week ago. Jenn
