July 4 Ride

Mark Jaxion will be subbing in as Saturday morning ride leader this week. The ride will begin from Rock Creek Tavern (old cornelius pass road and phillips). Route meanders through the relatively flat lands between hillsboro, north plains and forest grove. Primary route distance is around 53 miles with numerous cut off points.

Ride will start at 9AM to allow plenty of time for people to get to BBQs and other holiday celebrations.

P.S. Jeff Tedder provides Hammer products to the club at 15% off retail...I just picked up a big order of gels, Recoverite, and Hammer Whey from Jeff at a good price. If you want to place an order, first go to Hammernutrition.com to figure out what you want. Then call (503) 473-7650 or email Jeff ( This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it )  for his "concierge service" and club pricing -- he is very helpful and makes it easy to get what you need quickly. You can also pick up and order from Jeff at the club meeting in July.
