March Meeting & Ride - 3-6-2010 |
|
We did it! We built our ride and event schedule for 2010. In a word, “whoa”. I’m glad everyone had a high energy and enthusiasm level. Our Road Captain for the ride was Lenny with Jim riding as our Tail Gunner. Ride participants included Roy, Bruce & Debbie, Sherrie, Tom & Deliece, Kem, Laurie, John G, Robert & TJ plus Don & Andrea followed in their car for the first part. We rode off in search of the rumored blooming daffodils. We spied a few huge fields in the distance and stopped at the Roozengaarde Display Garden http://www.tulips.com/ for a short break plus photos. We then beat a path to La Conner to cross the bridge and headed to the turn off for Deception Pass. We tried to stop at the pass, but the tourists had clogged up the parking area and all turn outs to capacity. After all, it was a beautiful sunny day. We pushed on for the long way to Coupeville for the Mussel Festival. Yum, mussels. John G bought a bowl of a dozen mussels in broth full of garlic, green onions and cilantro for $5. Kem bought a bowl with the same, but red sauce instead of broth. Others lined up for ice cream. Before they could emerge with their dairy concoctions, John G had found fresh coffee and gourmet chocolate bars. We discussed departure points and headed off down the road in the direction of home. Yum, mussels. |
