Seattle to Portland success!

I will write a more complete report in the next few days. The important part is that we all made it. We all had fun. We were all sore, but no injuries. We did not even have a single flat.

There is something cool about doing a ride with about 9000 other people (yes, three zeros), but it is also a bit crazy. Maybe it is more than a bit.

Sue, Dan, Peggy, Bob, and I were together much of the day. The final stats were about 15 hours door to door with about 12 hours in motion. Average speed around 17.2 mph. One substantial delay waiting for a train. High temperatures in the 70s, tail wind much of the way, and about 8 Red Bulls. The commercials are right-- Red Bull does give you wings.
