Saturday May 22nd Ride 1-4

Hello all… just a reminder that our first ride will be this Saturday afternoon from 1-4. I keep checking the weather everyday, and each day the forecast for Saturday is looking better! Plan on meeting at the Happy Valley Campus at 1:00 pm and we are planning on being back by 4:00ish in time to comfortably make the 4:30 service. Be there with a a full tank of gas and full belly as we are not planning any lunch or gas stops, although we will of course be stopping for a stretch at some point, so bring water/snack for yourself. Please RSVP only if you are planning on attending… and if you are not sure, and need to make a game time decision… no worries just show up!

Going or not, we all appreciate your prayers for sunshine.

This will be a short afternoon ride, departing after the last Church Service. This route is already planned and will end at a late afternoon cookout.  As it get’s closer to the date we will look to try and get a somewhat accurate RSVP count so that we can plan accordingly.  Spouses/significant others of those riding are welcome to meet us there at 3:30 if they are not riding.

We will also try and do a few more impromptu real short evening rides.  We have a large group on this mailing list and would love to get as many of you as possible to have the opportunity to ride with us at least once this year.

 Whether you are riding with us or on your own, may God bless you and keep you safe as you are out enjoying His beautiful scenery!

Ride Saturday 4/17/2010

Based on the weather report for Saturday, 4/17/10, I thought we could possibly get together for an impromptu ride and clear some cob webs out. Anybody interested, meet at the church (172nd & Hemrick) parking lot at 8:45 AM, this Saturday and we will head OUT ABOUT 9:00. Thought we would go WA 14 to breakfast at Skamania Lodge then on up to Hood River & cross the bridge and come back 84. (Probably still too wet and cold coming back behind the MT.)

Pictures – Better late than never.

Sorry for the delay in updating.  In may we took a great ride to the south side of St Helen’s and home through the Gorge.  The following pictures are from that ride.  Our June Ride took us “around the block”.  We simply went around Mt. Hood, which included our first female driver!  Hopefully we can continue that as a trend.  We are looking forward to our July ride which is currently scheduled for Saturday July 15th.  More details to come.  Thanks to all of you who have gone with and made it a truely wonderful time.  God Bless.

May 30th Ride

Hello All

 

I just wanted to give you all an update on the Ride on Saturday.  Below is a link to the route that we will be following.  I pre-rode it this week and it will be 175 miles and will likely take us closer to 5.5 hours.  That accounts for time for lunch and gas stops.  The roads are in great condition, but I did ride past a little snow.  Weather also looks phenominal!

 

Thanks to all of you that have already replied… remember please reply ahead of time so that we can plan accordingly.  Even an email late Friday is just fine.

 

Have a great Friday and see you on Saturday!
