(Long Distance) Ramblings

Sunday, February 01, 2004

I could not do a long ride, so I did a hilly ride instead.

I headed east out of town toward the foothills. Once there, I did the Fox-Drift Creek-Victor Point loop three times before heading home. I did 65 miles and 4900' of elevation gain.

I was cold. My toes got cold each time I travelled south on Victor Point Rd and into the wind. The sky was cloudy most of the ride, and a shower did find me as I headed home.

Why did I not have time to do a long ride? Because Joanne and I drove to Seattle to see Willie Wier. He gave a lecture on bicycling in India. After the show, he was nice enough to pose for a picture with us! If you ever get a chace to see Willie live, you will enjoy it!
