Riding to Break the Cycle

This morning was an “early” morning for a day off. Up at 8am and enjoy the wonderful new town we were in. Upon waking Michal and Sarah had ridden off to town, so we were left to our vices and decided to hit the downtown and find a cafe for some tasty goods and coffee. [...]

Todays Ride: 45.85 Miles/ Max Speed:34.4 mph/ Odometer: 621.9 Miles/ Today was a lazy morning. We got up about 7:30-8:00 but didn’t end up leaving camp until about 10am Warren had left late last night back to his site and we thought we wouldn’t hear from or see him again, until we started out down [...]

Day 20 – Ride Day Fourteen: Brookings, OR to Elk Prairie Campground, California! Another depressingly cold and wet morning. But this morning came glazed with the lure of being a mere 10 miles from the California border! The sun and warmth were allegedly miles away! We did not mess around this morning, we hit the [...]

Today is strange. We are in the middle of a small town in their public park, camping out beside signs that say overnight camping is illegal. What the heck? Not to mention how darn cold it is! Breakfast was kind of a mess, using the random ingredients left from days past without too much effort [...]

This morning started out a little shaky. I was nervous about yesterday’s ride, I was nervous about how the health would hold up. I was not in  a great mood per se, but I was more ready to go than yesterday. After getting dressed I headed for breakfast which was rather lavish today as it [...]

This morning smelled delicious. We woke to the smell of Gingerbread Pancakes! So much food this morning, which was so fantastic. We finished filling our bellies and got our things packed up together and aimed for the road. Just as we got outside the building though Phoebe noticed she had a flat, so we had [...]

Today started out on a decent note. A good nights rest led to fairly good moods around the camp site. It was cold and we were damp though and all fully aware that the day was starting with a gross gross hill. We started our slow preparation for the day, assembling breakfast and lunch from [...]

This morning is not my favourite morning. It is dare I say, cold. There is tons of dew, and the moisture is only making things less comfortable. None the less we were lazy and headed back into town shortly after 10 to resume laundry. As I was going to watch the laundry while others did [...]

This morning arrived very early on. We’d decided last night that we wanted to get a head start on the day, and hopefully get to our next location: Newport! We’d heard lots of good things about the folks at Bike Newport, and we knew they had showers for us, and well frankly after yesterday’s ride, [...]

Good Morning Oregon! Today was a fantastically lazy/late day. We left the community center at about 9:30am and decided to find a coffee shop for which to shake the tiredness out. We left the coffee shop about about 10:15 and headed down the road about 20 miles to Cannon Beach. Cannon beach has these amazing [...]
