This year's ride is going to look different from previous years. The original roads on the east side of Mt. St. Helens got too rough to ride years ago, and the road on the northwest side isn't long enough to make for more than a couple of hours of riding. This always leaves me struggling to have something interesting after lunch, so now we're looking at something completely different. I'm thinking about starting in Stevenson and running back roads to Trout Lake and an impressive view of the south side of Mt. Adams, followed by a ride through Glenwood and down along the Klickitat River before crossing over the Columbia River and down along the east side of Mt. Hood.
