To recuperated from our very long ride on Friday, we had fewer miles on Saturday, 27 June, but with even tougher climbs.....more testing I guess and we were praised by the Ride Leader at the end of the day! The sweat climbing three multimile grades is well worth the beauty encountered along the way and the exhilerating flight down the other side. I never imagined myself trying to guide a shimmying bike at 35+ miles per hour through beautiful coniferous forests. What a gift!
Wildflowers abound and I enjoyed many peaceful times listening to the forest creatures as I snapped images. A bike enables me to stop any place along the road an soak up the grandeur.
