It looked like rain but I brought my Litespeed, a bike I will ride in the rain.

Tuesday afternoon was misty up on Mt. Sylvania. Warm, but misty. When it came time to head toward Tualatin and the Tuesday night ride, I got a bit wet walking out to the parking lot. But dropping down the hill to Taualatin stopped the mist but the roads were still wet.

I miss the group that starts at 5:00 so I started with Steve at 5:30. I have chased Steve around the hills before and it looked like I will be doing so again. Four of us started out and stayed together until Mountain Road climb. There I dropped off the back but within sight of Steve. The other two dropped us and we never saw them again. I chased Steve up and down the hills. I was working very hard. It felt good!

In the end, we road in together but near the park, we were passed by a faster group.
