2009 Tulip Ride - April 19
By John Davis • Apr 18th, 2009 • Category: Blog PostsJeff Henshaw is once again organizing the Tulip Ride on Sunday, April 19th. This year Jeff is offering a unique T-shirt to commemorate the event with proceeds going to Northwest Harvest. Whether or not you make the ride, consider getting a shirt and supporting the cause.
From The Hog Blog:
Almost a decade ago, before terms like “bailout” and “recession” were household words, a bunch of overworked Xbox employees decided to go for a spring motorcycle ride. We spent the day in Washington’s beautiful Skagit Valley at the Tulip Festival. It turned out to be one of the nicest rides of the year, so we’ve invited our friends each year since.

Really disappointing tulip fields this year. Mostly saw daffodils. Tulips that my family and i did see were being trampled by tourists.Seemed like most of the fields were empty this year.
