Cape Argo Park, Oregon

Did some riding on the Southern Oregon Coast. Not much of a photog but here are a few pictures of my ride out to Cape Argo park and back.

I really like this one, where one can see the clouds just hovering above the cliff.

East Hill

I enjoy photography, mountains, and cycling. Last summer I went on my first Ride Around Washington, RAW as it is called. What a great way to enjoy all three, and if you want a great ride, this one is totally awesome, 400+ miles in 6 days, we had super weather, got some cool shots too! The three I posted here were taken of a stormhead cloud over Naches on our last night, August 2008.

You're livin' in a piece of heaven, Jan...

Very, Very Nice

I love this thread! We are so lucky to live in the PNW.

These are all taken with a Pentax K10D. While none of them were taken on a ride, every scene can be found on a well known cycling route here in the PNW.

I took that pic after playing tennis with the wife at the park. She plays in a league and I'm not a hard core player but it's fun. I was jealously ckecking out the riders pulling in, but in order for me to put in some good long rides I have to keep the wife happy with her interets.

Sweet ride yesterday! Sorry you missed it.

Eastern Washington pics from the SIR 400K last weekend. Enjoy!

Tell us that in February when we haven't seen the sun for 8 weeks or more and its dark at 4:00pm and doesn't get light till 9:00am:(. I know its great now but oh are we gonna pay for it come the winter. Oh lordy I dread that, which is why I'm riding every chance I get right now. :)
