Day 119: Sunday, August 7, 2011


54 miles into Holiday Farm RV Resort, McKenzie Bridge, Oregon
We had perfect weather and an incredibly beautiful ride today.  It was really delightful having Margi and Dan riding with me and Dan turns out to be a great action photographer.  Dan did double duty as he drove their rental car up to the Dee Wright Observatory at the top of the pass, bicycled down to Sisters, then bicycled back up the pass and finished up the ride with me while Margi drove the car to their accommodations in McKenzie Bridge.  We had to bicycle up about 2200 feet, then bicycled down 4000 feet.   Not a bad tradeoff.  We rode through the most awesome lava field on the way up and a beautiful, shady, dense pine forest on the way down.
