Oct. 18 Rides

Xeney how come she cries when you go fast? too noisy? too bumpy?

Too bumpy, I think. She's little -- about 18 pounds -- and the shocks on the Chariot are intended for a kid 25 pounds or over. I rode behind my husband once when he had her in the back on a gravel road, and he was going pretty fast and she was bouncing all over the place. She HATED it. We aren't taking her off paved roads again until she hits 25 pounds.

She did not mind the potholes or rough roads we traveled yesterday as long as I did not go too fast. I always say "wheee!" when we go over a bump and sometimes I hear this little "whee!" from the trailer. (She doesn't talk much yet but she likes to repeat fun sounds.)

We did not see any zebras or do anything as cool as makbike's century, however.

Bring her here and we'll take her to see zebras and llamas and emus!

Rode with the club on Saturday. Gorgeous day! Great Ride. We started in Fall City, rode up to Snoqualmie Falls, through North Bend along beautiful quiet back country roads with awesome views of fall foliage. Stopped in North Bend for lunch and saw Mt. Si peeking through some clouds.

This picture was not taken on Saturday's ride but I had to add it. I took this on an early morning ride about 1 or 2 weeks ago.

Thanks Biciclista! Cascade Bike Club. We had, I would have to say, 30 riders on yesterdays ride! I had a great time!

Completed my first century today! Yahoo!!! It was an awesome ride...certainly not easy, but I guess I trained enough for it because it wasn't as difficult as I was expecting.

Congratulations RolliePollie on completing your first century! Did you get any pictures? Which ride did you do?
