August &
September: Weather-perfect Events!
|
Many of the club members biked to the annual picnic at the ChacesÕ house on August 22nd. |
|
|
Bill, Marshall, and Jerry shared a little shade by Angle Lake before lunch. |
|
|
Do you think Bruce might be laughing at one of PeteÕs infamous jokes? |
|
|
Yes, we actually had a business meeting! |
|
|
Rod, Buff and Dan at the latte stop across from Coulon Park near the end of a ride on Aug 25. |

|
The Tokeland multi-days ride provided good biking and great scenery in late August. |
|
|
And even some sunshine! |
|
|
Best of all, Hal had a surprise birthday party. Thanks, Julie! |
|
|
Quite a crowd ended up on the traditional Labor Day Weekend rides in the Yakima Valley wine region. It appears as if Jake stood guard while others tasted the fruit of the vine. |
|
|
NoÉwaitÉJake made it in! Cheers! |

|
Perhaps the most important part of the SAGÕs job for the wineries tours: being sure the bottles arrive ÒhomeÓ safely! Thanks, George. |

|
Not to be outdone by the wineries bikers, Dan, Rod, Buff, John and Hal enjoyed a hardy ride closer to home. Buff and Dan were riding a tandem and provided a good rabbit for Hal as they did 24 mph on the level and 20 mph up hill. Rod and John survived but did not always keep up on the ride from Auburn to Mud Mt Dam via Black Diamond. |

ItÕs a steady uphill climb on the ride to Sunrise. Rod G., his neighbor Paul B., Ron W., David G. (Rod's son & Boeing Employee), Buff C., Dan N., John H., and Hal R, all took up the challenge. (Notice the clever pasting in of photographer JohnÕs visage.) |
