For Bike Sabbath we will be heading to Marymoor Park to play on

and if your saying "But Monica I dont have a fixie or a track bike!" DONT WORRY

If your into that kooky rock climbing bit, right next to the track is an awesome looking climbing rock.

If that's not your thing then you must like drinking beer or having a picnic in a pleasant spot like
here

or here (kid not always included).

Since its near the trail meet up at Norms again for the Sunday Bloody Mary and Mimosa happy hour and good food. Noon eat. Depart at 1pm.

Its gonna be sunny but not too hot. Perfect bike riding weather.

My 9-year old rode the Velodrome on a mountain bike. I'm pretty sure you asshats can handle it.

We did! Did about 62 miles total, per Ben's bike computer. The velodrome was great! Could do with less goose poop, though.

Great ride. Lots of fun people! Forgot how pretty the trail was that far up. The velodrome freaked the shit out of me at first, kept expecting to just slide down. Amazingly you don't. It was pretty fun. On the way home ran into two hot air ballons.

Anyway here are my pics. Tried to get a pic of everyone who went on the Velodrome. Didnt quite succeed.

The trees are misleading. The windmill was one, maybe two centimeters tops. Easy to miss. Check it out here, I can EASILY cover the entire thing with one finger.

I think the windmill was hidden by the hot air balloon: http://www.flickr.com/photos/moniemoe/3961266525/in/set-72157622349187099/
