Training Ride to Port Orchard

So when the sun decides to come out,

So do the Riders! 

The weather was Sunny &

55 degrees and it was a good day to step up our training.  

 

 

A 54 mile round trip from Tacoma to Port Orchard and back sounded like a good idea.

 

 

 

So across the Narrows Bridge we went. 

 

It was a good ride, though there were more hills than I expected on the Cushman Trail near Gig Harbor. No one dismounted when we rode up a 10% grade over 1200 ft long!!

 

Even though we wanted too!

 

And after a couple hour ride, we arrived in Port Orchard, WA

 

 

Then it was back to Tacoma (only 27 more miles) with a quick stop at the local PD.

Overall it was a good and challenging ride.  And a good test to see where we sit in reference to finishing the 270 miles of the

Police Unity Tour!

 

 

Oh, did I mention I had another flat?

 

Only 57 days left until we ride in the Police Unity Tour with the Southern California Chapter!
