The last photo I uploaded to Instagram happened to be this one…
My BFF Marci and I try to schedule in a local adventure about once a month. Often we do not get further than a local bar, but every once in awhile we do something cool and film it. Someone shared a video about the Vance Creek Railriders excursion and decided Marci and I should definitely go.
It’s like Go-Carts on rails that you pedal. Four people per cart pedal through a beautiful landscape for about six miles and then the carts are turned around and you pedal back the six miles you came. It’s a beautiful little ride and we really cruised the first six miles since it was mostly downhill. Unfortunately, that means the six miles back is mostly uphill. I cursed myself all the way back to the car because that was a lot more exercise than I ever intend.
There is a motorized helper vehicle at the end of the line of rail carts, but we were not going slow enough for it to catch up and push us along. Kind of like being juuuust above the poverty line and ineligible to receive assistance, but still feeling pretty poor about yourself. We were fit enough to keep juuuuuust ahead of the motorized helper. We longed for our own motor, but ultimately it really was a fun adventure and I would do totally do it again. I hear there are a couple other rail excursions in the Pacific Northwest, I want to find the one that goes along the Oregon Coast…that sounds flat.
Watch our adventure from start to finish:

That’s almost like the mountain coaster that my son and husband rode in the Smoky Mountains. There was no pedals though…just a brake and my husband was scared sh*tless. The picture we have of the two is epic.
You look gorgeous as always!

Omigosh, I have never heard of such a thing. Maybe because I’m in Colorado and it’s too hilly here.
I was gonna say, may your jeans RIP, but I guess they already did…
