Thanks William!
You always find the coolest stuff.

One day I would like to do this.
I think it wouldn't be fun without friends.

On the STP you have at least 8,000 friends!

That sure looks like a very nice ride/event! Thanks for sharing.

Is it Portland ME or Portland OR? ;)

I have a couple friends riding STP this year, I wish I was able to join them.

I have ridden this and can say there are _way_ better rides in Washington state. Most of the 200+ miles are non-descript and flat. Typically there are way, way too many people on the road that obviously don't ride that often, which means craziness and falling.
It is an institution, though. When a non-cyclist finds out you ride the first question they (almost always) ask is: Have you done STP?
Anyways, I'm not trying to be an elitist downer-deb. It's just that this ride is very underwhelming. It's main feature is that it's long.
