A good weekend to ride!

Skipped the Bellevue races this weekend, but still got a lot of riding in. Saturday: after napping and gorging on cheapo pizza at Cici's, I decided to get out and work off the calories. Get to Tranquility, empty parking lot. Pretty sure that everybody was racing. Up rolls Paul! We rode the new north side then hit up the older north section. Legs were fresh and energy was high. I should have raced!
It was Cody's first time at Manawa 

Sunday I got a hold of Cody and we ventured over to Manawa. Wasn't sure if it would be dry after reading the THOR facebook page, but the trail was perfect! Dry, no sloppy sections whatsoever! Got in two laps in the 70 degrees temps with a cool breeze to keep us cool. It must been a long winter, because two bike rides later, I already got a slight tan/sunburn. What!!! If that's the case, I'm gonna burn like crazy in Hawaii in two weeks.

Glad we got out to Manawa, only got to ride it once last year after a trailday before the flooding occurred. Great trail to hone the skills and work on some cardio. Easy singletrack and I've got no problem with that! Great job done by the Manawa THOR crew. Looks like lots of trees and logs were cut, lots of big trees must have fallen since last year.

Beautiful day out, the bikes, motorcycles, and hotrods were out.
