This is a photo from last weekends' ride in Pendleton, Oregon. If you pass through Pendleton and never get off the interstate you'd think this part of Oregon was pretty dull. Miles of dryland wheat farms in all directions with little to grab your attention until you get to the Blue Mountains. Get off the freeway though and hop on a bike and strike out on those quiet farm roads that radiate from town and land takes on a completely different perspective.

Yep. I did make it up again. It seemed easier this time, or not as steep. I'm growing quite fond of this bike.
The stick is Sharon's. She hiked up the South Ridge Trail and met me. We arrived at the top in the same minute!
Who was it on the previous page said there were some great photos here? +100! You all have been busy!
Here's a shot from today, two circuits of Acadia's PLR:

How long is the climb up Greylock, in miles and ascent? And is the descent fun?

aka: Mike J.
The many and varied uses of a Schwinn LeTour:
(note: this tube was removed from a frame with a very bent fork and bent tubes near the head that a thrift shop was selling as a complete bike, so I bought it for parts and chopped the frame. The rear triangle is being used as a shop seat.)
{ I'm currently replacing the rear springs/struts on my wife's car. Bicycles are much easier to work on.**
