New PR in OR 200K!

... first qualifier for PBP done in 9 hours and 39 minutes.

My fastest ever 200K brevet. Many thanks to Bert Lutz who rode with me for much of the ride. I also met Lynne, Mike Richeson and Peg Winczewski (who suffered to flats, back to back)

I have done a faster permanent: The Three Rivers Cruise in 8h 59m. This was last weekend. If I do the Tahuya 300 next week, I would have ridden long distances 3 weekends in a row.

Next looms the Monster SIR 300K: The Tahuya Hills 300. I finished last, last year, having wasted tons of time at all the controls. Not so this year. I shall try and finish and catch a decent enough ferry to get home on time. Or just ride home from the ferry terminal.
