We're spending some time in Winchester Bay, OR in our fifth wheel. We're out each morning pulling crab traps with friends (limits on Friday and Thursday, not so good today). After the crabbing, cooking and cleaning has been done each day, I've gone for rides. I'm not comfortable riding too far on Highway 101 with its high volume of traffic. I know, lots of tourers go all the way from Canada to Mexico, traveling the length of Oregon on this coastal highway. I just don't like being that close to so many trucks, RVs and cars. I've found a great 3-mile road amongst the incredible dunes that has no traffic. A ride to that road, a couple of trips up and down it, coupled with a pretty good climb up past the Umpqua Lighthouse and state campground provided a 20-mile ride. I hit a-fast-for-me 34+ mph this afternoon coming down 101 from the lighthouse into Winchester Bay. It's cool here. About 60 degrees with coastal overcast and wind. I suppose it's preparing me for fall at home.
