I stopped by the M.S. office in Portland on Thursday to pick up my registration packet (hopefully saving myself time in the rush on Saturday morning). As I walked in, I was greeted by this smiling face in the distance, our fearless leader John. I walked closer and saw that it was a storage room and there were photos just this size on the walls, and there were post-it notes on each one and on the walls labeling what was below. If you look closely, you can see that John is sporting a note that says Toilet Paper. I'm sure there's some meaning behind its placement there....Happy Riding to all of us!

Did anyone else catch a glimpse of the fish on your helmet in your shadow?
