From mid-September – mid-October 2008, six of us (Beth, Tom, Bruce, Benj, Candy, and I—all Odyssey riders) biked down the Oregon and California coast, from Astoria, OR to Los Angeles CA. We were joined in the northern section by Patricia and Joe, and in the southern section by my Mom and Dad (and, briefly, my sister Rachel). Russ joined us for part of the time, although he didn’t ride.
It was a great ride!
This was the planned daily overnight stops and mileage. (For the most part, we stuck to the itinerary. We had to occasionally dodge fires and floods in California.)
