Like I told Phil, when I started the ride I was 74, when I got to Hillsboro I was 79, and then after a night's rest I was 74 again.<br /><br />The ride from Vernonia to Scappoose was 24 miles, including a pass that forced me to walk about a mile. The curvy, crazy downhill on that route was exhilarating.I was thankful to be in one piece when we got to the bottom.<br /><br />The day passing through Portland was 42 miles, but thankfully a lot of downhill until the last walk up the hill in Oregon City.<br /><br />Let's ride again sometime. Thanks for the great photos.<br />KenAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02475991625548077454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24860352.post-75653012619370109632014-09-03T08:37:52.235-07:002014-09-03T08:37:52.235-07:00Your descriptions of each day's ride, along wi...Your descriptions of each day's ride, along with your beautiful photos had me riding with all of you on what, i sense is an interesting tour route.
