83 miles from McKenzie Pass to Coburg
We have the best timing ever. We just so happened to be going down the pass when..wait for it.. the Cascade Cycling Classic was racing up it. We got a great perspective on just how slow we are. We also realized it is very tough to come up with things to yell at the racers who are not the leaders... Go faster!! Uhh no thats not it. Great job!!! They know its not true.. Uhhh Keep it up?? nope.
Also people make nasty noises while riding. If there is only two riders its not too bad. A pack of 70 riders sounds like.. Well its not a pretty sound. Lots of snorting and hacking. Eww
The rest of the ride was very pleasant. We met a few friendly east bounders and had nice chats with them.
Oregon is def the Virginia of the west. I don't dislike it.
Tho
the foggiest, coldest, downhill of my life. luckily it was rewarded by that great meal at that little shop at the moment.
