Cause I sure felt like I did. Either that, or I'm just a lot stronger cyclist than I thought.

I rode the one-day, and it seemed like from the afternoon on, I was getting blown gently into Oregon.

I haven't seen anybody else mention this... did you notice a tailwind?

Oh yeah!

I felt some headwind into Longview, which converted to tailwind on the OR side. Which was OK by me, that's just what I needed about then.

Of course, I did have a double-shot and coffeecake at the Starbuck's right before the bridge...!
