I went out exploring.
Headed out past one of our local reservoirs-was looking fora particular road. I saw another one that I hadnt seen before, and decided to take it.
There was a sign that indicated "Oakridge 20". Normally one takes the expressway to Oakridge, so I decided what the heck.
After about a mile the pavement ended, and I again decided, what the heck... I am on a strom, right?
Off I went, and was treated to 19 miles of solitude. No other cars or riders. Just me, the woods, the road, and the bike. I got to look down on valleys, and on creeks and rivers.
Sure enough, I popped out by Oakridge, grinning ear to ear. Its pretty neat being able to run highway speed to the boonies, go through them, then run highway speed back.
This was the halfway point, when I can, I am going back to see about those falls...
