That stretch is one of the most remarkable in the area. When I rode it a few years ago, we didn't see a car for the first 3 or 4 hours. Did you see the free range cattle? I think they might have been closer to 395...
4 years agoI don’t trust it and almost never do this either. Among other things, it’s too hard to focus and get a decent shot. For some reason though I got fixated on Rachael’s shadow as we were biking along and decided to make an exception.
4 years agoAnother wonderful thing about bicycling, of course. You can stop at the best spots.
4 years agoYou’re right bout the contemplative aspect, which was a lucky accident. It reminds me a bit of Wyeth’s Christina’s World.
4 years agoThanks for this great blast from the past!
Looks like a much better ride on a cooler day.
Beautiful!
May the next multiple weeks be SVT-free!
4 years agoHey! Is that Clint Eastwood?
4 years agoI'd say this is a pretty nice evolution of the pose .. the stance more contemplative and the absence of the wide brimmed hat less goofy.
The wide brimmed helmet is pretty sweet on a 312-degree day, but is pretty ridiculous-looking and is a bit of a neck snapper in strong winds.
Spectacular!
4 years agoIt always makes me nervous when Ron shoots while riding.
I've tried it a few times. Certainly saves time, but not sure the time benefit outweighs the risk of falling or dropping the camera.
In any case .. nice shot!
A sticky ethical point. Better would be if I could just link to the original and have it display here, but that doesn’t really work yet. When this is all done, maybe I can deem some votes to you two.
4 years agoIt's OK to 'like' your own photo if it's in someone else's journal .. right?
4 years agoAgreed. Thanks. I forgot about them. Surprisingly, I didn’t see them included in my reference to Oregon wildflowers, but obviously we have them.
4 years agoIsn’t this a sublime spot though? The whole road is wonderful, but this spot is the best.

I wonder what's worse . . . getting bit by a dog or getting trampled by cows.
