The school kids are ecstatic

The west end of the Tualatin Valley woke up this morning to just under an inch of snow on the ground. As you moved east the snow depth declined rapidly until by the time you got to Hillsboro (about 8 miles from here) it was just a dusting on the barkdust.

Once again this pansy opted for the safety and comfort of the gym. I'm going to have to start riding the real bike soon or I'll forget how to ride it!

If you have a little time and like to surf bike blogs take a look at Cecil Anne's blog. ("Formerly Floyd Speaks" on my blog listing, right column, bottom) Also take a look at Lynne F's blog. ("Lynne Rides") Some interesting reading. Both those ladies evidently have more intestinal fortitude than I..... or more friends who are willing to join them on cold wet winter rides!
Eric "Thrasher" Troili has been updating his blog as well. If you are as interested in the Furnace Creek 508 as I am, this is a must read. Click on "Eric "Thrasher" Troili's Furnace Creek 508 blog". It is worth the read to see what these competitors go through to finish this event. My hat is off to them.
