Road and Mountain Biking
Silly rabbit… it’s not biking season in the Gorge. It’s XC skiing and BC skiing season! Wax those skis with some red and get out and play in the snow!
Upcoming Events
The Kickstand Coffee fun run usually happens today, but I’m guessing it’s off. There’s a by-donation yoga class at 4:15pm at Yoga Samadhi in White Salmon. The cupid Shuffle fun run is Saturday at Shortt Supply at 9:30am. 3 mile run. Wear green if you’re single, red if you’re taken, and yellow for “it’s complicated.”
