Willamette Valley Scenic Bikeway, Day 3
Another restless night sleep as if my brain couldn’t stop pedaling through the night and then we attacked the third and final day of our Willamette Valley Scenic Bikeway adventure.

Willamette Valley Scenic Bikeway Day 2, Part 2
Albany to Salem – Miles 60-99 For some odd reason I left for day two of biking with the number 24 in my head – 24 miles that is – but oh how I was wrong. Pedaling from Albany to Salem as the second part of our Willamette Valley Scenic Bikeway adventure, I should have [...]

Biking the Willamette River
A few of my co-workers and I have decided to bike the Willamette Valley Scenic Bikeway at the end of the September. Over the course of three days we will be traveling 130 miles from Armitage County Park in Eugene to Champoeq Park, south of Portland. It should be very epic. In prep I have [...]
