Subject: Re: 3 favorite brevet courses?
I'll have to second the Three Volcano 300K Brevet.  That one really
was special.

The Three Capes 300K Brevet in Oregon is a great course.  There is one
road, it's the one you turn left onto as you leave the ocean, and it
is about as perfect a bicycle road as I can imagine.  I wish I could
remember the name of that road, but everyone who's done that brevet
knows which one I mean.

A big tie for third: the Covered Bridges 400K in Oregon, the Seattle
600K that finished on the other side of the Sound last June and where
Kay's Korner was a pleasant surprise, the Seattle 600K that started
and ended in Olympia the year before where Eric and volunteers had a
tarp set up on a late night quiet stretch of road and provided us with
chairs and soup until we had to be shooed away, and the Kerr Lake
Permanent that starts in Durham NC, goes north into Virginina, and
back to Durham.

I'm hoping for a good ride in three hours as we'll start the
Morrisville 400K with good weather this morning and the possibility
that this evening a tailwind will build and blow us home.
