3 Capes

37 miles of 69 done. At Pacific City and not a drop of rain today!

(posted via cell phone)

Over half of the folks who had expressed an interest in riding the 70 mile Three Capes Scenic Loop today backed out. Most were scared off by the prediction of a 70% chance of rain, winds to 15 mph, and a high temp of 49. The weather folks missed the prediction and those who backed out missed a great day!

Luis, Lauren, and I had not a drop of rain today, sunshine from time to time, only the slightest of breeze, and a high over 60!

I was dressed for the rain and cold so overheated a bit today but it was still a great day to be on a bike. My riding partners were both good strong riders who were up to the rigors of this ride. It made the day go so much easier for all of us.

We made such good time that we rewarded ourselves with over an hour lunch stop at the Pelican Brew Pub in Pacific City. Maybe not the smartest thing to do since we still had 35 miles to ride! We made it back to Tillamook well before dark, it was just a bit hard to ride after eating real food.......and drinking a small glass of real beer! :-O
