Did my fourth Bridge Pedal this past Sunday. There were more people and it was less organized this year. Not the best of combinations. But I still had fun.

Bobby and Joe on the Sellwood Bridge.

The bottleneck before the Ross Island Bridge. Montana and teh Erin were somewhere up there. We, the riders, did waves and sang Happy Birthday to ??? while waited.

It’s out of the frame, but I did “rock,” thoroughly beating Joe’s “scissors.” But what the hell? None of us remembered to take our helmets off for them photographs.

I learned that if you wear the latest Seattle to Portland jersey to the Bridge Pedal, other riders will point you out or ask if you did the STP this year?

Did I do the STP this year? Yes, ladies. No, dudes, I did not.

Fine. No women noticed. Only men are such bike geeks.

Lastly, a huge thanks to Joe for lending me all the gear! Having a decent bike made a huge difference.
