Tulip Pedal Bike Ride: La Conner, WA

Our first organized ride of the year.  Went with Jules and his (and now our) friend, Dale.  They started an hour later than us and finished a good half hour before us.

It's not that we're slow, it's that they are fast.  Yeah, that's it.  We're not slow.  We're good enough, we're smart enough, and doggone it we're fast enough.



It's really a nice ride, through the tulip fields, through lots of small farms, and along Padilla Bay. 

66 miles.  The last 12 were against a strong headwind, so in pushing ourselves I tweaked my knee.  But we'll rest it a few days and then do a longer ride later in the week.  We are getting in shape for the STP.  We can't wait.
