Spring Equinox Dart, March 22-23
One ORR team starts, one ORR team finishes... Here's Cecil-Anne's report on Two Mad Dogs and An Englishman on their first team event.

Snoozeville, March 8
Thanks to everyone who came out for the Snoozeville Populaire.
Included among the 84 finishers were two guys named Brian List (one from Olympia & one from Portland), and two well-prepared unicyclists.
Thanks to Mike Bingle for his help at registration, and to Susan France for her help and expertise throughout the event (including the secret control).
It was amusing to see how much more accurately the non-super-fast riders answered the second info control question. I guess a quick peripheral glance doesn't offer the same detail (like the difference between orange and red) as does a more deliberate inspection.
Sorry that the pizza joint in Forest Grove wasn't more accommodating. I didn't anticipate that they wouldn't deal with larger groups of bikers as well as they do with smaller numbers (like on a permanent).
My friend (and cycling god-parent) Bob Good took several pictures at the Cornelius Pass Roadhouse and on Dairy Creek Road. You can view them at tangobiker.
Cheers,
Bill

The Snooseville Snews
The Twins both blogged ...
Cecil-Anne Bobbsey and Lynne Bobbsey.
The Kramer whipped up this creative video.
Kevin included a link to his report.

How does this work?
Snoozeville next weekend, Berkie and Three Capes coming soon after, how does the ORR set up such wonderful events? It only happens because dozens of people volunteer and do what needs doing. Remember to thank them early and often.
