The temperature at departure was the warmest thus far. However, once we headed into a steady headwind, it felt cold enough. Tracy finally fixed her electronic shifting and rode without any problems today. The tough hills were before the first SAG at 28 miles and totaled 2000 feet of climbing. There was only 800 feet climbing in the last 31 miles, just the gentle rolling kind. We have a layover day in Crescent Day on Thursday. Two days of rain are to follow and we are not anxious to ride in the rain.
Last night's destination, Gold Beach, was a three mile climb and three mile descent on the other side of this point of land.

I continue to be just blown away by the photos and the scenery - it must be even more spectacular seeing as you are on a bike. And it certainly is a marked contrast to the scenery we had on the XC. Bob
