Road Ride - Bend to Bachelor to Bend

On our recent trip to Central Oregon, I took the skinny tire out and got a little mileage from Bend up to Mt Bachelor and back.  The terrain is deceiving because it looks flat on the way to Mt Bachelor but you are definitely pedaling up-hill.  There are definitely a couple of spots where the terrains turns up and you can see the grade but for most of the way up, it is a gentle slope that eases up - albeit around 3,000 ft over about 20 miles....

The return is really fast and fun - tuck and fly....

  1. I'm a tad jealous. Two more months before the doc allows me to ride and climb...
