Last June we were hammered with rain and snow so we got that out of the way !! The fun part of the ride is that we have local volunteer guides to ride with the group each day.
Enjoy
^ That looks sweet! I've been through some of those towns on Cycle Oregon's long past. I remember Prineville, distinctly. Isn't that home of Les Schwab? We had a cow-pie pitching contest at the fair, and went to a concert to see some country-rock-ish star, complete with screaming teenage fans.
Flippin great time.
PS: Just noticed that the fee for 5 days of cycling and road support is only $300(!) That is an great deal.
