Day 1: Kings Estate


Had a lovely 39 mile "shakedown" ride starting from King's Estate Vineyard, winding through some lovely less-traveled roads in the Willamette valley. The temps have dropped from the record-breaking 100's of last week to some very civilized 70's today. We have 4 doctors on this trip so any and all medical issues should be taken care of quickly and efficiently as long as they are anesthetic internal neurological pediatric in nature. Katie is riding with no training- hats off to being 20-something. Peg did the entire route on her new Jamis bike. Susan showed her multiple talents in riding 2 different bikes in one day. Mark burned thru 3 riding partners on the tandem-- and it's only the first day. At this rate, he'll have everyone on the bike by day 4. Tomorrow is a 60 miler. More photos to follow.
