I'm trying to forget how close winter is, and getting closer with each (earlier) sunset.
I only do one-day rides, generally local. But one of my friends did the Michigander ride this summer, and has done it before. She liked it very much (despite some rain at the beginning). Another friend enjoyed a multi-day ride from the mountains of northern California to San Francisco. She's been climbing like a pro ever since she came back.
(Several other friends rode the GAP this summer, also.)

Took 5 days to ride from Bronnoysund to Bodo on the northern Norway coast. One of my life’s top favorite rides!

RebeccaC, will you be posting any pictures of that Norway ride? It sounds gorgeous. Originally Posted by rebeccaC
