A Perfect Day

What makes a perfect day?.....For riding anyway, it means weather in the 70s, no wind, no traffic, curvy roads, and riding with my two Amigos Ross and Orv. Orv is experiencing some serious health issues, so anytime we can get out for a ride together is to be treasured. We took a relatively short ride of about 160 miles, but it is one of our favorites and has been done many, many times. We call it the Carson/Cougar loop.

We always stop at the McClellan overlook of Mt St.Helens, which you have seen several times in this blog. It is either at the end or the beginning (depending on direction of travel) of a really nice smooth curvy section, plus it has a nice view and a toilet.

That is Mt St. Helens in the distance under a cloud cap. We had lunch of some pretty tasty Clam Chowder in Cougar and then home by 1:30 in time for some house chores.
