Day 7

OREGON!
Late in today's ride Edgar and I Crossed the Megler Bridge into Oregon.
This morning was tough, but after a lunchable and a mocha i felt MUCH better and the second half of the day was fantastic, despite the rain and wind!
Riding down to the Columbia River Valley was unreal, out of the forest into the water.  The Megler bridge was disappearing into fog.  We couldn't see the Oregon coast...  The weather got especially gnarly as the wind and rain picked up.  So the 4.1 mile bridge was especially interesting.
The weather was supposed to stay nasty all night so we split a hostel for $44.  We got fed and now I sleep.
I will do a week in review at some point. BUT I have done 424 miles and made it to OR!

  2. Way to go!!! So glad you got to see Canon Beach - an incredible sight and it must be a relief to be along some ocean coast. :)
