Emily, so glad you enjoyed your trip. I need to remember to look at your pictures on my home computer. Photobucket is an off-limits site at work.

Rebecca, again, your photos are outstanding!

@mzone, tell me more about the Northwest Tour. I've looked at the TCBA site, but there's not a ton of info available on the routes? It sounds like the rides are hilly? How hilly would you say? How was the support and the camping? Are most of the riders members of TCBA or are there some outsiders as well?

Before getting married, I did a couple of weeklong tours in Tennessee similar to the Northwest Tour and would really like to do something like that again if I can talk my husband into it. I love how little you have to actually worry about on a tour like that. It was surprisingly relaxing.

Thanks for any info you can provide.
