Olympic Cycling Classic, 5/20 Port Angeles WA

[Quillfred]

Wow, what an awesome ride that would be. The scenery is stunning. My grandad lived many years in Port Angeles and Sequim.

It is a ride I would love to do next year. Even a metric would be too much as I'm not conditioned enough and haven't cranked out more than 35-40 max. I hope you can remind us next year.

Now you have me dreaming about Hurricane Ridge, 3 Crabs, Pt Townsend, La Push. Oh My!

Quillfred, it is a gorgeous route. I sort of wish they held it in August or September when the weather is more likely to be good, and I'm not sure I'm ready (in fact, pretty sure I'm not), but I'm going to try it (I think) anyhow. Being local, I will always know where I am and can bail out & call someone to come get me! :-) How's that for a can-do attitude! Did the Ridge road today up to the tunnels. It is still COLD up there, but I was testing out some new granny gears on the back, and I LOVE them. It was a nice aerobic ride, for a change, rather than lactate threshold work! I'll try to remind for next year...the date seems to be about the same, I think.

(pops head up) Did someone say 3 Crabs? I love that place !!!

Gawd, I need to get back to the Olympic Peninsula sometime ... soon. And Victoria.

Yep, the Three Crabs...been going there since I was a kid. If you get up this way, feel free to let me know...there are some fun rides.
