More bike racing in Bend....

Friday's Criterion in downtown Bend was crazy. Some of the corner's were so tight, we saw bodies everywhere. Hub managed to get a pic of Levi screaming past us. Yesterday's stage ended up on Mt. Bachelor. It was quite a site. As of right now, Levi is still in first place. We'll see what happens after today's final stage. We also spent a little time just enjoying the scenery...particularly the Deschutes River in downtown Bend. The weather has been perfect.

Cascade Cycling Classic, Bend, OR

We decided to head to Bend (on the way to California) to see this bicycle classic particularly because Chris Horner and Levi Leipheimer are riding. Today's stage ended after 78 miles on North Sister peak. By the way....there were professional women racing as well. The photos are in order: Levi finishing 5th, The woman's winner, Levi and Chris before the race, the start of the race with the police motorcycles, And they're off (the men), the women...ready to go (they're my idols), and finally the finish line.

4th of July - 2008

Our block party began with a bike parade led by a West Linn police person and Hub on his Harley....how American is that???

It appears a good time was had by all...
