In Oregon Now after one Knarly Bridge Crossing

It's day three of the Big Ride Pacific Coast and after today is done, we will have logged over 200 miles. It's been great riding. The first day I had two flats, though I suspect the first flat occurred before we started riding. The second one I must have hit a pot hole while riding at 28 mph. By the way, chipseal is the worse riding surface ever to ride on for 10 pluus miles. You could literrally feel your teeth shaking out of your mouth. Of course, I could always slow down.   

So far, no rain and hopefully it will stay this way. It's been very nice weather, though on the warm side. That's okay except for the times when there's no shade or wind and you can feel the heat rising from the blacktop. That's killer.

I am slowly getting used to camp life. The first night was the toughest and I did not sleep well at all. Last night we were at Cape Disappointment SP and the ocean waves crashing lulled me quickly to sleep. I hope we have that every night.

I think we will be riding on the coast for the most of way now. We finished riding through the interior of south western Washington yesterday. This morning we crossed the Columbia river to Astoria, ORE on a three mile long bridge whose name I totally forgetting. It was totally knarly. There were semis, camper trailers and cars passing us all the time. The last part we had to ride a mile up a steep incline while trying to avoid broken glass and other things that makes a bicycle tire go "pop". Today will be an easy ride to Cannon Beach.    

Take care and I hope everyone is doing well.

BTW, I am writing this post from "Internet Coffee" in Seaside, Oregon.
