Today we had the great honor to partner with the Othello Fuller Center today. A single mom was served along with providing assistance for the local food pantry. What a great day to serve others while having several opportunities to enjoy the warm outdoors.
Today’s 78 mile ride started as a ride through the countryside of Washington. Being from the less-tree state of Nebraska, I appreciated the sight and smell of the trees around us.
Today was our biggest climb yet – 4,400 feet up over 35 miles, with over 3,500 of those feet within 15 miles. A feat that demands slow and steady progress to complete the task. The upside was that the remaining 50 miles of our 88-mile trek was almost completely downhill.
WOW, where do I start, day 3 and already have made 14 new friends. I already knew 4 of the riders and support members of the 19 total including myself.
