Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Right now I'm out, but there's a chance I could go if I could get a ride BACK to Portland? Anyone heading back to Portland after the ride?

Okay, but I haven't ridden... I should be able to keep a decent pace on this one, but I can't go out and try to time trial up the climbs... lol.

Don't be a wuss, after the ride just merge that rocket ship on to I-5 and signal to get in the passing lane. You will be in Portland before you know it .

I'll be in Chicago this weekend, have fun, it's a beautiful ride. BTW, I arranged for mechanical support at the halfway stop this year, just in case it's needed.
