1st Annual Aint Doody & Bad JuJu Ride

[Aint Doody]

It's taken me a long time to get back to TE after being in FL for 10 days with family where Bad Juju and I got to ride together & then the WA Bike Ride where I met TSPoet. I had a week in between the 2 that nearly killed me. I've been home a week. The WA Bike Ride was fantastic. Torka even got a cute, new haircut courtesy of one of the cyclists on the ride. (You'll have to clue them all in, TSP!) And yes, Bikerhen, it started in Mead. We spent the night at Mt. Spokane HS and headed out the next day (Sun) to Newport (I think.) Then we rode to Box Canyon Dam for the next night. 2 nights in Colville at their wonderful city park--had a rest day. And the last night in a town called Springdale. Beautiful scenery everywhere--hardly any cell service the whole trip--that's a good thing. Waterfalls to see, grottos, lakes, rivers, bear cubs (well, I heard of one), eagles. Just lovely. There was a cyclist there from Paris, France--Bernard--a delightful man. People from all over. The ride is limited to 250. It is so well planned and supported. The food is terrific. Hmmmmm--maybe I'd better hush. I want to be sure that I can get in the ride next year. Uhhhh--the food is bad, the scenery is non-existant, the people are mean.............

Clever strategy, AD, but I'm afraid your secret is out! Glad to hear you had such a great--er, I mean awful--time.

That is hilarious!! I'm not too far and spend a lot of time on the Gulf Coast myself. Where did you ride?

Hubby and I have been talking about bringing out bikes down. Where is the rails to trails?
