Cycle Oregon Blog Intro

julieandrandy@blogspot.com

Hi All,

We made it back home last night at 10pm! Cycle
Oregon was fun, challenging and a test of physical
and mental endurance. The route was beautiful with
high desert and deep forests with rivers and streams.
We cycled our tandem 481 total miles through the
Central Cascades. Sunday we peddled out of Sisters
and then the following Saturday we coasted in to
Sisters to complete a big loop which took us down to
Crater Lake, Diamond Lake, North Umpqua River,
MacKenzie River, Middle Fork of the Willamette River,
and up the switchback trails throught the lava fields.
We plan on posting the individual days events on
our blogspot as we have a chance to write them The
address is above if you are interested in reading
about the adventures.

We do have pictures that may or may not post, so we
may send those separately as we have a chance.

A little interesting fact from the trip: we saw at
least 16 different brands of tandems. Probably we
saw between 20-30 tandems on the trip. We had no idea
there were so many different varieties. Two of the
tandem teams came from Japan. One came from Hawaii.

We will leave you with that for now. As we mentally
and physically recover, there will be more.
