What? Again?
Yes, I know. We just did this last winter, and the one before that. We seem to be stuck in a rut, but for us a pretty tolerable one: spend autumn in Southern Europe somewhere; come back to Portland long enough to check in, run some errands, and head south with the car because we’ve gotten spoiled and don’t like the rain and cold all that much. We might as well leverage the fact that we’re homeless anyway and migrate with the seasons.
The plan this winter looks very much like last winter’s. We’ll be staying in many of the same places and taking many of the same rides, so there may not be much new to say. Not that that’s likely to stop us - we’ll probably post something from time to time anyway, if for no other reason than to help ourselves remember where the time went this winter when we look back at it. And I’m sure we’ll want to keep track of how far up Mount Lemmon we made it this year, and of what I did for my annual birthday ride (76 miles this time!). And if we see any road runners or peccaries or bobcats this time out. Or stumble across any CycleBlazers - that’s always worth reporting about. And or course my Rodriguez wants to see and be seen after his long spell in the closet.
Anyway, here’s an outline of this winter’s plan. If it looks like we’ll be in your neighborhood somewhere along the way, drop us a comment and we’ll get in touch.

No wine tasting though, which would be totally wasted on us! Rachael doesn’t drink, and I can’t taste or smell.
