"They're tearing up my house" ride, 08/18 or 08/19?

[mcoyote]

Weekend after next they're going to be ripping out my carpets, putting down flooring, fixing a downstairs bathroom, and about a dozen other things, so we're going to be out of the house. My wife has generously suggested I go ride that weekend (so I'll at least be out of her hair), so I'm going to put it to you all -- would anyone be interested in going for a spin, *somewhere* either Saturday or Sunday while the weather's still kinda nice?

The NW COG group is having a Volcano ride that Saturday, 8/18.  9am in Randle.  You are welcome to come.

Maybe one of the great ride planners on this site can come up with something for us to do. If such a thing happens, Sunday would work better for me.   But I would be game for a Saturday ride as well.

I'm thinking Sunday is preferable, also, but I still have the luxury of flexibility. Where...oh..where..shall we go..(*sigh*)?

[bizarro]

I'd be in but not only is the bike getting dropped for some work but I'm going to be in the studio recording.

[Mr Sunshine]

I'm gonna be in the Gorge for a concert...have fun guys!

[zzring]

Have there been any decisions made here yet? The reason I ask is that Domino's writes the weekly schedule by Sunday. I have to have any request for a day off in by Saturday. If not, I'll be working next weekend. So, what say you?

Thanks,
David

He is up here in Worshingten.

Eep. Sorry, I've been busy for a couple of days.

No, I don't believe this has been nailed down, and yes, I'm still interested in going for a ride either day. My apologies for being lazy -- since my navigational expertise with this are is a bit slim, the best route I could suggest is a couple of the twisted edges on the east side, south of town, though they certainly won't compare with the last route around Hood Canal.

Anybody else with the Washington State Destination Highways book with suggestions? Otherwise, I'll just close my eyes and start flipping pages...

So, maybe this is more of a ride than you're considering but we're thinking about heading up to Mount Baker tomorrow.  Route up Hwy 9 through Arlington, Big Lake, Sedro Wooley and up to Demming, followed my the Mount Baker Highway. 

For the DH users, see-
DH61
DH8

And if things work out, we'll come back down through Bellingham via 542 and down Chuckanut Drive (DH27).  From there we'll wing it.

Best to hit this stretch early-ish as summer traffic can build up quick.  You're welcome to join us, or for that matter, anybody interested.

That's an EXCELLENT ride.

Well, I know you're busy but join us man!  

[bizarro]

I really wish I could. I have rehearsal tomorrow at 11am and then I have to start studying for my final since I'm going to a wedding on Sunday.

[SlakeMoth]

Home improvement tomorrow, and Glacier NP next weekend (flying, not riding...) - wouldlike to get out sunday, though.

[Mrs. DantesDame]

The jury's still out, but I may be running up to Nelson/Castlegar area that weekend... It'd but about 1,000 miles and both days

[mcoyote]

I know it's late, but circumstances have changed (not tearing up the place this weekend after all). I will be free on Sunday and am likely to ride *somewhere*, however, since it's one of those use-it-or-lose-it propositions (family men, can I get a witness?).

I've been timid about "leading" a ride around here because I just don't know the area or the people that well, but I will lay down a basic agenda for those who might be interested -- meet @ Beth's at...say...8am (worked last time), ride a bunch, then stop and eat, then ride some more, then go home.

I'll be happy to haggle over routes and destinations -- my trusty DH book in hand -- if I can get a quick show of hands. Anyone (like I said, I know it's late, so I won't cry if nobody wants to play...)?

Looks like I'll be in town, so consider this my hand  

The weather is suppose to be rain all day. What bike will you be on? (sorry - I don't know what you have in the garage these days)

[jsanford]

I might be in...rain schmain.

What about the Hood Canal bridge and the peninsula?
