Here's a few pics from my beautiful ride today. Got in 20 miles including the huge hill that one of the photos was taken from ... it's a great challenge. Excellent day for a ride! You can still see a lot of the standing water we have around here from the flooding over the last couple of weeks. Those are supposed to be dry fields -- not lakes/rivers or streams!

Jess, those are gorgeous. I do love the area where you live! Glad you got out.
What a spectacular weekend. I was chatting with the UPS guy who came by to deliver something this afternoon about the gorgeous weather, and he said it let him take his motorcycle to one of the parks on Lake Washington (which you see in my pic at the start of the thread) and propose to his girlfriend right at sunset yesterday. He was just beaming and it was a truly adorable story. We PNWers get VERY excited when the weather gets good, don't we!!"My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure."

was my first day in the clipless shoes and pedals, rode 80km thereabouts. Nice and relaxed. fell over in front of a stationary car... so embarassing... fortunately nothing hurt (at all?? hmm??) another fall saw me land smack on my knee, so I have a bruise from that. otherwise, all was great and I'm totally enjoying the clipless experience...

Happy to see everyone else is having a wonderful ride. And gorgeous view. I'm jealous...
love to live in Seattle area. Maybe on one of the Islands. People are so nice and pleasant.
The countryside jesvet posted is beautiful too. Seems more like a tranquail lifestyle. More down to earth than where I live.
Anyway, love to hear all your wonderful ride. Perks me up
