Oregon? Gee, we've been thinking of a trip out west...
But maybe next year, right now, we're taking off for Florida for my husband's job in about a week--maybe even within the next few days. Hoping to find some nice places for me to ride while he's at work. Maybe even can find a group to ride with...
