Friday morning we met bright and early in Bountiful and did a long day of driving to Portland. The crew consisted of: Andy B, Bri, Andy N, Brooke, Tony, Chris, Evan and me :) The drive was pretty uneventful except for losing the tread off the tire on the trailer which in turn took off the fender/wheel cover on the trailer. So the menfolk changed the tire and we stopped at Les Schawb and bought another new tire. We arrived in Portland and stopped at the airport to pick up Blake and Gary. Then we headed off to Lake Oswego (sp) where we had a hotel for the night. Early the next morning Andy B went to pick up Jesse who lives in Portland. We loaded everything back up into the trucks and off we went to start in Lincoln City. Lincoln City was holding their annual Kite Festival. I took a couple of pictures of kites. Pretty awesome. We unloaded and prepped our bikes. That took awhile. We left my truck and Evan went ahead with the other truck and trailer. It was rather chilly and it was hard to decide what to wear. We started off down the coast. This first day was a coastal ride. This was one of my favorite days. The wind was blowing so we had a nice tail. Nothing is flat. There is always a up and down. It was nice when the bike trail took off the main highway. There is not any shoulder on the highway.
Here are some pics of the first day.
