Regular Goose run today. Meet 6pm at corner of SW 19th & Madison for 7-mile run to Pittock Mansion and back.

Next Thursday, 7/12, is Leg 1 of the Tour de Goose. Leg 1 follows the regular route up to Fairview (our normal mid-climb break point.) For those unfamiliar with the route, this will be a chance for a preview. (The route will be marked with flour on race day.)

Meanwhile, on the other side of the pond, Fabulous Fabian Cancellara leads the Tour de France after 4 stages.
I could dig deeper..., but then I'd be further in a hole.

Excellent post David! I will definitely be there tonight. Weather looks excellent!

If anyone is new to the Goose, this is a big hill run; approximately 1000 feet of elevation gain and loss. We don't leave anyone behind so if you're concerned about that, don't be.

I'll be staying for a beer afterwards at the Goose Hollow Inn. And as David says, the Tour de Goose starts next Thursday (7/12), so better get ready!

Vive le Tour!

I'm going to sit this one out. I'm helping man a booth a Fit Right's First Thursday.

Ill be back next week for the tour though.

Once again beautiful weather to climb the mountain tonight. And a wonderful view at the top. Mt. Hood was crystal clear. Goosers were:

Hope I didn't forget anyone!
