From Bayshore down the coast and up the valley. Up the North Fork to the covered bridge.
Left early. Sunny and cold when I left but low clouds in the Yachats Valley which lifted shortly after I turned around. Then warm. Gorgeous actually.
Got the 6:20 bus out of Corvallis which dropped me off at Hatfield so I didn’t have to ride over the beach. Also stayed on 101 instead of South Beaver Creek so total of 6 miles shorter.
Cool but sunny.
Another great tenners ride. Felt really good going over the hill.
A couple of trips from Bayshore. Super windy on one ride over the bridge,
Rode to town. Took bus to Newport. 101 to Ona Beach. South Beaver Creek to Bayview. Gorgeous ride. Very warm and windy.
Warm sunny days!!
Warm and sunny. Great day to get J out on the Tandem.
Out exploring the neighborhood
Quick getaway from the beach house. Nice hilly loop. About half gravel.
Scouting to find South Beaver Creek Road which is about 3 miles in, and NF 51 which is about 5.5.
Cold but dry. A little wind. Good Tenners ride.
Old guys ride, then garden. Next day to Loop tour meeting. Cold, very cold.
Sunny and cold but the sun is much warmer now. Very little wind.
Went down Truax Island which I had never done before. There is a huge blackberry yard right along the river. Maybe 20 or more acres. I think it is part of Stahlbush.
Buena Vista Ferry to Ankeney Wildlife refuge
Had to drop the truck off in South Town and it was snowing. Some slush of the road but not much.
Some headwind some rain. Not too bad though.
Started out with the Tuesday old guys. Then some stops and back around Bald Hill Park.
The sun came out unexpectedly
Out Bellfountain. Showers with some sun. Better than it had been.
Cloudy but dry with a lttle wind. Another good turnout.
Still sunny. I wanted to ride the Ravn but didn’t feel like the big climb.
Sunny and cool.
After feeling like I was having a heart attack on Wednesday I felt great riding over Decker from 34 today. Foggy except for out 34 almost to Decker.
Some rain. Pretty nasty actually.
Took the Saga on a club ride to see how I like the saddle and new handlebars. Pretty good actually. Maybe some minor adjustments.
Nice day. Close to 50 and no rain or wind.
Rain. Riding in the rail. Really didn't want to have to do it. Wind too. Rain and wind. But not too cold.
Sunny and clear. Cold to start but warmed up quickly. Out Peoria etc to Thompson Mills. Then Plainview, Rock Hill and Stoltz into Lebanon. Pizza at the strawberry place which was not that great. Back via Tangent. I hit a wall at about 40 miles.
Some decent riding weather.
Two rides q
Warmer and cloudy. Cold and windy on top though.
Nice New Years Day ride. Right around freezing. Sunny at first but then foggy. Roads mostly dry. Margin Cafe in Albany.
Had to take the Ravn out for the last ride of the year. Went to Crystal Lake and rode some mud. Fun but a pain to clean the bike. 11 of these miles borrowed from the Saga.
Nice Tenners ride. Grey but not cold and not raining. A little mist on Decker. The group split and the half I was in went over Decker from 34 while the other half went over from Bellfountain. We met at the top and then again at Nutcakes. Hard ride for me. 2 weeks off the bike and mostly sitting around is not good for me. I'm going to have to work really hard to get back in shape next year.
Beautiful day. Mostly sunny and over 50. I rode south into a good wind and then cruised back. This ride put me over 5000 miles for the year.
Early Loop Tour meeting at Ann's house, then South Coop for breakfast, then garden, home, and back to Bi-mart for xmas tree lights.
January to school. Breakfast at north coop. Met Tuesday group at Imagine. Lunch at south coop. Met January for ride home.
Foggy but then almost sunny.
