I have been riding with some young guys from work that are very, very new to the sport. They are amazingly strong but I often undervalue my experience.

To date, they had never experienced the chaos that is a large, fast group ride. We have had some fast rides but they only included our little group.

This morning we joined up with the local Saturday morning cluster ride and sure enough one of my young-ins goes down! He lost focus and overlapped tires with another of the young-ins in front of him. They were leading but thankfully no one else in the group went down.

A little road rash and his front wheel so out of true we had to remove a brake pad to get home but a lesson learned for all of them.

Our Sunday ride: 63miles/4000' of climbing through the Columbia Gorge on the Oregon side.

This is "The Bridge of the Gods" spanning the Columbia River between Cascade Locks, OR and Washington state. It's also the crossing for the Pacific Crest Trail.

This is the Mighty Sternwheeler tour boat just after it did a huge "U" turn at the Bonneville Dam heading back up river to it's dock at Cascade Locks. Mt Hamilton in the background.

Some shots from my daily, or figuratively my daily, not like I ride Col de Marcieu every day. But a lot. On average maybe twice a week, and that’s been going on for a long time. Always at the end of the day after working around on the house on projects. One of two daily rides actually, the other being the climb to the Col du Coq. Posted some pics of that recently. I switch between them. These shots are from the ride to Col de Marcieu.

I’ve got a few variations on the theme, depending on mood. These shots are from the variation that’s an interesting way to make a mostly easy ride friggin hard as heck. As in there’s a climb I call the St B Wall, one-laner road heading straight up the hill for a hundred meter stretch of pain. Kicks in at around 9%, ramps up all the way until it tops out around 20%. Fun little road. Then there’s the section I call JP’s Field, in french Champ Jean-Paul, a 1200-meter section of fun gravel and dirt. Have yet to see another road bike out there.

Depending on which variations I do makes for around 25 K of riding with maybe 550 meters of climbing. A good evening ramble to clear the head. Some pics from recently.
