I love a good climb and impulsively signed up for a 22-mile ride a few months ago. It started down the road from our favorite cabin rental in Glacier and ended a few miles past Mt. Baker Ski Area at Artist Point. I’ve driven this beautiful mountain pass so many times and thought it would…

Some photos from the rally this weekend in Leavenworth, WA. Organized by Rapha Seattle and OMTM in Portland. Challenging, inspiring, and really fun. Felt like I was back on sabbatical for a couple days. Some photos: And one of Matt and I that another rider took:
