It's in the bag. Another R12. That means 12 consecutive months riding at least a 200km brevet.
I've got the framework in, but the details still need to be filled in
Number 1: 4March17 was the OR Randonneur's Grab Bag 200km in March 2017. That was wet and cold. Time of 13:21
Number 2: 1April17 was the OR Randonneurs Birkie's 200km brevet from Forest Grove to past Birkenfeld and back to Forest Grove. Time of 11:23.
Sealed it with the Three Capes 300km from Forest Grove via the Three Capes and back to Forest Grove. And to make Dieter's R2, did the Permanent #1401 Beaverton-Hagg Lake- Carlton of 203 km.
Number 3: 18May17 was on Ken Mattina's Lunch at Nicks, from Multnomah Village to McMinville and back. Time of 11:12
Number 4: 3June17 was OR Randonneurs Newberg- Scio 200 km brevet and a time of 11:47
Number 5: 19July17 was Ken's Locks and Bagels 205 km permanent. I was lucky to have finished it before the fire in the gorge.Also lucky to have found some of the path and stay (barely) in the time constraints. I got to each control before the cut off time, but left afterwards. So no time in the "bank", except the last segment between St Johns and John's Landing, the start/end location, got a time of 13:24
Number 6: 16Aug17 was another Lunch at Nick's with the Bike Friday. Flatted once and a time of 12:00

Got a time 11:17 despite going through Forest Grove to get around the bridge that was closed for repair on Spring Hill Rd on the way to Gales Creek.
Number 9: 17Nov17 with Ken's Mill City Coffee Run, Starts and ends just north of the Boones Bridge, so two crossings of that fast moving traffic bridge. Too boot, a south wind and Friday traffice comng home on Howell Prairie Road with a time of 11:59
Number 10: 1Dec17 on Ken's Outside the Gates of (Multnomah Village), as we liked the route so much, and no high elevations to worry about bad weather. Got a time of 10:41
