Twisted Tours, October 2007

[twistedCBR]

We did a 6 day (was supposed be a 9 day) ride through Cali, Oreg, and Wash last week. We averaged about 500 miles a day through 5000 foot passes and cold, wet rain. It rained the entire time! Here are some pics but the whole story can be found here: http://www.southbayriders.com/forums...ad.php?t=48461

The Route ---Snow in Northern/Western Washington hindered our ride to Canada---


The 101


Angry Elk


It did this for 6 days

... did you expect different weather in the Pacific NW this time of year? I hope you brought the right gear and had a great time, regardless. I live in Eugene and ride all through here all year long. I'm riding down to Mt. Shasta this weekend and up to Vancouver next.

Well, I was using a borrowed excessively large heated vest but that's it. I have no cold-weather riding gear. I dubbed my Frogg Toggs suit and latex gloves. It was a fun time regardless, but I learned a lot, too.
