Cycle Oregon!

To Tokie:
I did see a tandem with only 1 person 1 of the days, now I know why! Get all better. It was a great week.

Me too! I remember that. I wish we had all met up. It wasn't until the end of the week that I even thought of it. The hardest day for me was the short day - was it 46 miles? it was 97 degrees that day and not a tree in sight anywhere.

That was my hubby. We told rider services the night before when I signed up for medical sag that he was going to do that. But in the am, someone who knew better at rider services said "he's going to get pulled over!", & he was-but they let him finish the flat 40 miler. For safety reasons they don't allow solo tandem-ers. Might be sketchy on descents I suppose. Thanks- I am back to the therapy pool exercise while my Achilles settles down again. DH is now intrigued by the Cycle Greater Yellowstone ride, so that may be next year's adventure!

Wow, that looks incredible. I might need to think about it.

According to one of the medical sag drivers (who rode the Cycle Greater Yellowstone this year) the organizers are using the CO as their model for the CGY. There were glitches (like hour long waits for the showers & not enough blue rooms) but they are working hard to improve the logistics and consulting with people who have CO experience. It would be hard to put on a ride that was better organized than CO!

True, all you have to do on CO is sleep, eat and ride. I hate having to wait until February to find out where it will be next year.
