A Saturday Double Metric Century


Joanne, Sal and I rode the Three Prairies 200K Permanent Brevets. We started in a light rain from the Coffee Cottage in Newburg and headed south toward the towns of Dundee, Dayton, Amity, Perrydale and Dallas. Between Perrydale and Dallas, the skies open up on us and rain came down in buckets at which point in time Sal spoke up, "If you wanted to know what Paris-Brest-Paris was like, it was like this!".

Fun.

We returned to Newburg, but our ride was not done, but the rain was. We did not see any more rain as we headed out of town crossing the Willamette River and rode through Gervis to Mt. Angel where we took a short stop at a new bakery in town. It was so good, I will be back.
