McClinchy Mile

A bunch of Big Riders headed to Monroe yesterday for the annual McClinchy Mile bike ride. I did the 47 mile loop from Monroe to Granite Falls and back. Despite being off a bike for three weeks, I felt pretty good. Not the fastest in the group, but not the slowest either. Somewhere near Roeskelly Lake, I had a revelation about bike riding: It's a pretty good mode of transportation and excercise, but as a form of recreation (or re-creation) it doesn't hold a candle to hiking and climbing. You simply just don't get away from civilization on a bike.
