[OrRando] Mt Adams South by Southwest Ride Report

[David Rowe]

Hey, John.  Great ride yesterday ... I wasn't planning to do the 300 and 400
but you've got me intrigued!  Bert says you are pre-riding the weekend
before the planned 300 ride, and if so, I'd like to join you guys if that is
OK.

Let me know and thanks again!
