The Cascade Training Series is a progressive set of training rides that are designed to improve endurance and speed such that you can tackle the big summer rides like the STP (seattle to portland), the RSVP (Ride from Seattle to Vancouver and Party), or RAW (Ride Around Washington) Last year, I kept thinking that I should go to a few of them while they were on the easier side and yet I never made a single ride; this year, I was determined to get to at least the first one, and see just what I could do.
