Day 56- The search for good deals


Today was my 56th consecutive day on the bike.  It is of course the day after Christmas, the day when many are out in search of good deals.  The best deal I could think of today was to go for a bike ride.

Julie and I started out from Wilsonville and pedaled out a few miles to Tualatin for breakfast.


The roads were wet, but they were drying out as there was no rain today.

Following breakfast we decided that the weather was so nice and terrain so flat (compared to Seattle) that we'd continue northward.   We stopped for a photo as we crossed the Tualatin River near Cook Park.


There has been some localized flooding in the Willamette Valley, in the low lying areas of the Fanno Creek Trail it was still obvious. At this intersection the choice of which way to go was a simple one.


We got as far north as Denney Rd we exited the trail and took Hall Blvd back south.  It was a funny day, there was a river on the path, and geese on the road.


When we got to Durham we worked our way over to Boone's Ferry Rd and followed it to Wilsonville.


By the time we were half way finished, the roads were dry.  You couldn't ask for a much better day for late December.
