Race Across Oregon, Day 1

5AM  to midnight

Again, my apologies for not having time to do this justice.  I will have more time following the upcoming RAMROD trip and extended weekend for Tour de Kitsap to come back here and starting with the RAMROD preride add photos and commentary on through Tour de Kitsap.


Reader's Digest version:
Started off this morning with the big names of endurance cycling, Marko Baloh, Chris Ragsdale, Brian Eckert, Janice Shaufelt, and others.  I kept up with them pretty well, and then the 10 mile parade start ended and racing began.  The field took off up 7 Mile Hill out of Mosier, the leaders riding faster than I could ride on flat ground.  I did manage to have 2 people yet behind me as I summitted.

I fought digestive issues the entire day, but managed to have 275 miles of the ~520 logged by midnight.

Photos, video, more data to follow.  My apologies for taking so long to catch the blog up, but I'm busy riding bike!
