April Kincade has a road ride on tap tomorrow, if you’re interested contact her directly.  Here are the details:

SATURDAY, January 26^th – 11:00 a.m. Ride

Meet at the Lone Fir Bar & Grill at 10:45 a.m.

Pleasant Hill Road to Spirit Lake HWY, then Tower Road loop back to Spirit Lake!  It’s all downhill from there (never believe that)!!!  According to MapMyRide it’s 42 miles with 1647 feet of vertical gain.  Plan on 3+ hours.  The Lone Fir opens at 2:00 p.m. so some of us are planning to hang out for a beer and/or a bite to eat.  If you’re planning to join me please RSVP to aprkin2000@msn.com by 6:00 p.m. Friday. 

On Sunday April and Bob Stanton are hosting a coed ride at Stella beginning at 1pm.  Again if you’re interested, please contact April for details.

Upcoming Stuff!

Hello ladies!
I don't have any formal rides scheduled for this weekend but if you're heading out and want some company, let me know and I will get a message out to the group.

I will be looking for ride leaders for Fun and Easy rides throughout the summer.  It doesn't have to be at Growlers it can be at your favorite riding spot.  Think about it and let me know.  I like to have at least 2 rides per month from March through October

Here is the link to the GG event calendar!!
2013 Schedule - Drag out your calendar. Check these dates. So much going on that it's hard to keep it all straight. Info at http://writeteknorthwest.com/archives/12378/2013-action
Jeep has a big work party scheduled at Growlers on February 9th.  If you can make it let me know and I will get you on the list.  If you ride you gotta build!

The woods at GG and Stella are open again!!  If you go take a saw, there's been a ton of wind and will be a lot of blow down.  If you find anything to big to deal with let me know so we can get someone up there to take care of it.

FIELD TRIP!

Carol Hansen will be leading a GGG ride at Gnat Creek on Saturday at 10am.  The trailhead is about 1 hour from Longview so plan accordingly.  This is a really fun trail if you haven't ridden it you shouldn't miss this opportunity!  Let me know if you're planning on going so no one gets left behind.  bikeschic@yahoo.com

Happy Trails!

Hello ladies!

No Fun and Easy ride Saturday, the woods are still closed due to fire danger.  I know it’s sad to wish for rain, but that is the only way we will get back in!

Jeep and Dave are planning to ride the 211 at Mount Saint Helen’s on Saturday.  Time has yet to be determined.  They say the pace will be slow but in boy speak who really knows what that means…contact Jeep for details seattle0@hotmail.com

I am running in the Harvest Classic 10K on Saturday but after was thinking about putting together an impromptu girls night out…my daughter is spending the night with friends, my hubby is heading to Utah….I’m bored and don’t want a pity party at the house J  Let me know if you’re interested, not really sure even what I want to do but it will most likely involve food, beer and possibly some karaoke…

FIELD TRIP!!!  Carol Hansen will be leading a GGG ride at Gnat Creek just outside of Knappa on 10/13.  Ride time 10am.  The trailhead is about 1 hour from Longview.  I am planning to head up for this one.  I will most likely be hanging around after for some lunch and beers at Fort George in Astoria.  We can meet and caravan or, I can fit a few folks and bikes in my car but will be staying so if you’re not in a hurry to get back then you can ride with me.  Let me know if you’re interested!

 Happy Trails~
