Driving home this evening. Looking south into the San Pasqual Valley. Not the best quality photo. Took it with my iPhone. That's the moon there, and it was enormous tonight.

A few months back, 17 Mile Drive in Pacific Grove, CA. Very fun little loop.

I don't know why I haven't looked at this thread before. Most of these photos are absolutely breathtaking. I would love to post some photos of my rides here in Florida, but after seeing these photos, mine would bore you to death.

I was debating posting these because they're nowhere near as dramatic, but got to keep the Lane County, Oregon pictures going!

The road into Enchanted Valley, Florence, OR- this is about a 9% grade. I haven't conquered it yet, but someday! Lots of elk when you crest it and drop into the valley, but I haven't seen any when I've had my camera.
Now I wish I'd waited longer to try and get a picture without cars of the bridge over the north fork of the Siuslaw river yesterday when I was coming back from Mapleton.

I've posted a few photos here, but from other parts of the state. Post them anyways, I'd like to see views of our fair city.

In the wind
Near Ashcroft BC. This is a killer hill - 15 km at 11%, the pavement quality is great so the descent is a gas.
