p12 7th 100 k ride of the year

[Tri Girl]

Congrats, Mimi!! I'm glad this one was... less eventful than the last one.
You continue to amaze me! Way to go!!!

Love the jerseys!

You're a rock star! More than halfway to your goal! I know you put a lot of effort in, but you look relaxed and happy in your picture.

[Velocivixen]

Mimi, you're my hero! I'm inspired to hear about your ride and how you stuck it out. Nice going. I like the photo too.

[Susan126]

Yea Mimi! So proud that you completed your 7th ride! I am determined to restart my P12. Maybe this month or next. It's been a long recovery for me but I'm almost there (keeping my hopes up that I don't have a relapse).

Anyway while you were out enjoying your ride yesterday Joe and I were driving to Klamath Falls on Saturday with our daughter. Otherwise I would have joined you guys! Joe and I drove Jackie down and her boyfriend will pick her up in two weeks. On their back home Jackie and Brian will spend a long weekend in Cannon Beach. A nice way to celebrate the end of class! Jackie is taking a two week long class at O.I.T. The school district she works for is paying for the class. She is taking a new technology class which she will teach this fall to her 8th grade class. Engineering, robotics, CAD. My daughter is a science math teacher in a middle school. She teaches 8th graders. And she loves her job! Anyway we stopped at Crater Lake on our way down and WOW did they get a lot of snow this winter. It's still pretty snowy up there! We saw a few cyclists climbing up and two cyclists jumping into a snow bank to cool off. The views were phenomenal!

And I LOVE your new light weight wool Randonneur jersey! Where can I get one?

Really cool looking tree.

Happy Fourth of July! Joe and I got back last night and we are going out for a ride this morning . . . before the craziness begins!

Great job and great picture, Mimi!

(Don't tell Mr. Mimi, but I always think he's so cute in your pictures! I can't quite see, is he riding Katrina?)

[Biciclista]

Yes, Knott, he IS riding Katrina.
Susan, the jerseys are being sold by Joe Platzner. But I think they're all sold out.. Or close anyway. the last sizes that I knew were available are smaller ones, so there is hope.
It's really nice lightweight merino. I am rather indifferent to the color, but MAN, it's a nice jersey. You could wear it in any weather, hot or cold!
PS Susan, THAT SNOW!!!
