From July 21st to 25th, me and kristine plus 23 other members of our 2 churches came together and rode our bikes out to 45 mi. NW of Portland, Oregon. And for 4 days we rode bikes all over the area.
The average miles we did per day was 40 or so. But one day we did 54 miles round trip. It was a lot of fun! In the evenings, we would have a sermon preached by the pastor who leads the bike trip with a co. I have no pictures of us riding together, but someone video-taped us. So I will try to maybe get those and post them on the blog. I was a rookie this year, so I didn't know how or who to pick a water fight with (there are lots on every bike trip). So on one ride, I got clobbered by 2 people! Someone said, "that's what happens to you rookies! Don't pick a fight until your a veteran on the bike trip!"
It was lots of fun! I wish it had never ended. Next year we are going to the coast to bike. This year we bike the area of Vernonia, Oregon. I will get pictures on as fast as I can. Oh, and please leave comments on my blog if you can.
