Thank goodness for dual monitors

They are good for many things, including watching the Tour de France and bar review lectures simultaneously! 

Let the tapering begin!

Nick upgraded my handlebars, stem, and seat and his handlebars on the tandem this morning. A quick spin verified that this is indeed a better setup. (Looks nice too!)

This was our intended route. We had to ride back into Issaquah on Hwy 900, though, because May Valley was closed just east of there. In a few months, when the bridge is repaired, this will be a good route!

We also made a quick stop in Redmond for Derby Days. The masters men were just finishing as we rolled up. We watched the beginning of the women’s race, but it was too hot to stick around and enjoy the beer garden, so we climbed the hill home with thoughts of beet salad dancing in our heads.
