Mt. Adams Bike Tour

Saturday rode up at Mt. Adams.  105 miles, some 5000 feet or more of climb.  I thought I'd be stronger after 7 days in the Alps.  On the contrary, VA had to pull me in on her wheel most the way!  She was the most 'superior' rider in our group.  A little joke here - the first hill on the second loop, Mitch came by and yelled, "superior riders on your left".  Fuel to the fire....we passed them and then VA continued up to KOM that hill!
Craig, Davis, VA, Mitch, Steve and me after the ride
Speaking of superior riders and strong women, Jennifer Cree and Heidi Swift from Portland (you can follow their trek on Peloton Magazine and Oregon Live), along with 4 other women are riding the TDF one day ahead of the men.  They are the first of few women to do this and are featured in a Cannondale Women ad that is shown everyday on the coverage for TDF! So cool!
