I think my nerves were running lower than my tread from drifting around gravely wet corners. By the time we got to moniter I was more done than my tires. Nope, consider my tires retired

And here I was thinking you LIKED Ebbetts because it was rocky, sandy, had sheer unforgiving cliffs, rivers running across the road.  Sounds like off-roading to me!  It must be a CBR thing too, cause Wills has a certain affinity for Oregon Hell Road.  Another goat trail.

You know, going that late in the day actually worked in our favor, for Monitor at least.  The tar snakes weren't all gooey and the temps were mild.  Great ride.

BTW, when do I find my bike?  Ever?

We will have to get some more rides in before the adventures of the green machinetern can continue

Bri,

I'm throwing up the video from the second leg.  It's just shy of 8 minutes long.  You're not in it unfortunately, since your front tire kept you trailing me.   It came out well, except for the high contrast shadows and evening sun glare.

It will be 8 minutes you'll never get back.  Should be ready for viewing about 9AM.
