Looks like it will be a sunny day and in the low 60s before the chance of rain returns. I am going to go out for a scoot around mid-day, which is noon, also know as after lunch or 12pm.
The ride will be doing THE LOOP, about 3-4 hours on the north side of Columbia.
Twisty roads and beautiful scenery promised. Slabbing at minimal. I’ll be retarded…meaning on the ‘tard

Meeting place TBD and upon demand. Now you got a day to think about the perfect excuse to get away from work/chores/life/wife/GF/BF/DP, etc

EDIT: to specify meet place and time

Meeting at Krispy Kreme Doughnuts on Andresen, across from Costco, on the Home Deport side here in Vancouver:

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&sour...6&z=16&iwloc=A

Meet 11.30am....start rolling by 12pm or earlier when all committed people show up.

Bit flexible on the time, but the earlier we leave, the more sun-time we might have.

PS: The pace will be moderate considering the time of the year. I’ll also might have a buddy or two show up from ADV rider.

Cool, see you tomorrow! Kudos to you for coming from Salem...puts the PDX guys to shame as they complain about slabbing 10 miles to come across the river!

KATU Weather Update this morning!

Updated: Wednesday, November 4th 6:00 am

This will be the last warm , sunny and completely day for a while. East winds will continue to gust to near 30 miles per hour this morning-- and relax by tomorrow morning. Look for daytime highs around 65 degrees- four degrees shy of a record high for this date!
Tonight... increasing clouds with lows around 46 degrees. Steady rain will start around the valley by afternoon...with daytime highs dropping back down into the upper 50s.

Tomorrow's storm system will bring high surf (25-30') and high winds to the coast...with heavy rain at times. Rain continues through the weekend as well.

See ya'all around 11.30am!

Oh, the gauntlet has been thrown down. OK, I'm in, but only because Portland must be represented. Not because it's a beauteous day and I'm chomping at the bit to ride.

Tell The Boss your just going out to survey his good works and make sure no one absconded with them. No boss ever fired a man for doing inventory.

curveaddict · 11-04-2009, 10:07 AM

It's a great run for a 'tard, but I have new, fresh scrubbed shoes on the Z. I'll be there in any case.

Great ride, Ro! Thanks for leading. Thanks everyone for being such a great group to ride with! What a perfect afternoon to spend playing hooky

Jabomb9 · 11-04-2009, 05:29 PM

Man I'm super jealous. Glad you all had fun! Looks like a couple of new faces there too (at least new to me).

r6jon · 11-04-2009, 07:12 PM

Good times yall! I seem to have missed the turnoff to the lookout point.

fijiman · 11-04-2009, 07:19 PM

Hey good ride all…thanks for coming out and playing with me…I just needed that fix in before the wet spell arrives…

Good times with some great people…

Thanks for footing the gas bill Mandy...

BPWilsonCBRF3 · 11-04-2009, 07:19 PM

Great Ride and Time. Weather was almost perfect, just a little cool up by the overlook. Still, always enjoyable. Thanks for the ride Ro.
