Welcome Jim! Great to have another Portlander on the forums... Nice to hear you're getting back into riding. Definitely got a nice bike for it! Where have you ridden around the area so far?

Well, I did the Spring Century a couple of weeks ago. I live out near Cooper Mountain so I usually go out farmington west, then on to the town of Scholls and then back to Murray and Scholls Ferry Road and then back home, about 27 miles round trip.

Then I have been riding at lunch near downtown on the new springwater path, riding out to Oaks park and back from my office, about 12 miles !

Thats about it so far !
