We're in Wenatchee in central Washington on the Columbia River for the beginning of a 12-day ride called "Roll on Columbia". Wenatchee is east of the Cascades so the weather should be milder and dryer. However the forecast is for fairly cool weather, in the 40's at night and 60's during the day. We'll start each day with multiple layers of clothes and remove some as it warms up. This is a small group, only 14 riders. We know 13 of them from prior rides. The leaders are Jim and Jan Erickson. Jim (see photo on right) is "my cycling coach" who has been helping me train the past seven months for the cross-country ride.
We have a preliminary warm-up ride along the Columbia this afternoon. The first official function is happy hour at 5:30 followed by dinner at 6:30. The tour begins tomorrow.
