Bicycling
Bicycling is one of my greatest passions. I believe it brings a very necessary balance to my life by taking me away from the computer and the desk. I have done the Seattle to Portland (STP) bike ride since 2008 and will be doing this ride again in 2011. It is a 200 mile bike ride over the course of two days. In 2011 I finally did the Columbia Gorge Explorer (CGE) bike tour, which is a fully loaded tour that goes two days east on the Washington side of the Gorge and two west on the Oregon side of the Gorge. Fully loaded means I took my tent, sleeping bag, clothes, and food with me.
I also lead an annual Pedalpalooza ride called the SE Ponds ride.
Yoga
I discovered yoga in 2009. I practice a few times per month. This is another physical activity that help bring balance into all aspects of my life. I like Anusara inspired yoga.
