It couldn't have been that tough of a ride or that poorly marked, judging by
completion time. Winning time at Foothills of the Cascades 50 mile was
nearly 7 hours; in the pouring rain. Completions were even difficult.
Especially for the 75 mile riders entered; they ALL pulled. But sharing the
ride with a friend and enjoying being on my horse sure made the hours and
miles fly by...One of the shortest long rides I've ever been on!
