| 4th Annual 3 Pass Blast. 05/09/09 The 3 Pass Blast is the annual first real ride of the year. We used to do it a full month earlier. But the weather the last few years has made this impossible. The weather broke for us this year and gave us the first real summer like day of the year. This year I decided to switch it up and reverse the route. Normally Stevens, Blewett, and Snoqualmie passes. This year we did it the other way. It was great change of pace. At the suggestion of a rider we switched the starting point to Kens Truck stop instead of the usual North Bend. It was a great decision since the ride was well over 100 bikes this year. North Bend would have been tough. |

| This is a multi board ride and some go to Leavenworth for lunch. That was the original destination until last year. Some do not like Leavenworth as it is often to crowded. So we now go to Country Boys BBQ in Cashemere. We had called them early to warn them of a large group. On the day of the ride a small group of 10 or so riders headed out a few minutes before the main group. They wanted to get there before the crowd. After they ordered the owners asked were everyone else was. They said they had brought in 5 extra people. They were now worried. We did not disappoint them as the main group arrived in several waves. As I was leaving there were people from the later groups lined up out the door. Everyone was pretty happy and the food was great. The weather was perfect for us weather starved westsiders. The ride and food was great. We all have it marked on our calendars for next year. |
