STP Update
STP. Seattle To Portland. Bike ride. 200 miles in 2 days. July 15th and 16th.
That's the plan. Barb and I have been "in training" the past couple of months, which means we ride our bikes. A lot. Like we're up to near 60 miles each weekend day. I plan on doing 75 mile rides next Saturday and Sunday.
On the plus side, I'm in pretty good shape, my butt doesn't hurt so much when riding the 50th mile, and it's great to cruise along and view the scenery. It's nice to have a partner like Barbara to ride with. And I love my bike, and have enjoyed riding for forty years. But man, I'll be glad when the STP is a fond memory, and I can get back to riding my bike like a regular human being.
