Riders who’ve hung with the Reverend this year have had a chance to test their winter camping gear (Prez Wknd Ride) and dust off their riding technique. (Tahuya Dampalooza). What’s next, you might ask? Well it would be the Oyster, Clam, and Snow Line Jam.

As you may have noted, we were shut out of the seafood feast at Belfair State Park, while a couple of us found seafood on Prez Weekend. It’s time to make up for that shortfall.
Additionally, what question is on the mind of riders itching to explore the higher altitude roads in spring time:
Where is the Snow Line?!!
Where is the Snow Line?!!
Join me May 4, 5 &6 on this ride.
Friday May 4th we head over to Cove RV Park near Brinnon on the Hood Canal. http://www.coverv.com/ There we set up camp and go explore the snow line of the Quilcene/Brinnon area. Can we make it up to the Mt. Townsend Trailhead? We’ll find out. Late arrivers Friday can join us at the Park, and we’ll steam clams and broil our own Oysters courtesy of the facilities at the Cove.
Saturday May 5th we’ll head south, then west to Wynoochee Lake and camp at Coho Campground. http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/olympic/recarea/?recid=47807 Which Forest Service roads can we use to cross over to Wynoochee? We’ll find out.
Sunday May 6th we’ll head back via the Kitsap Peninsula, exploring more gravel roads on the Olympic National Forest.
This ride will likely be about 60% paved and the balance graded and rough unpaved roads.
Let me know if you’re interested. We’ll get a head count for seafood closer to the date.
A route similar to this may be used: http://ridewithgps.com/routes/1076640
More fun in 2012!!
