On a sunny day, the views are spectacular:







I live just up over the west hills, so when doing this ride, I hit a 4-corners, 4-summits loop -- first is home to Council Crest, which has a view of St. Helens, Mt. Adams, and Mt. Hood, then down and over to Mt. Tabor, which has a view of Mt. Hood, but mostly looks back into the city, then down and over to Rocky Butte, and down and over to the west-hills climb to Pittock Mansion, with views back to Mt. Hood, Tabor, Rocky Butte, and all the rest, and a quick finish-off climb over skyline drive and home. It's just under 40mi depending on the approaches, and around 3,500-4,000ft. of climbing. And there are literally hundreds of potential coffee stops



As for the fenders, they were a bit annoying to mount - the tab on the front one was too far forward, so I had to use zip-ties instead (until I can do some dremelling), and the rear stays need to be trimmed down a cm or so to pull the rear in a bit. I'd also like to replace the mudflaps with ones that go all the way to the ground, or a bit closer at least. But for the $60 I paid for these PDW full-metal "city" fenders, I'm happy. They are quiet too - though some of that is due to generous amounts of Cinelli cork tape being applied in lieu of proper leather washers.

Those spectacular views are an excellent reward for reaching those summits. Except when it’s socked in-then you can look forward to a coffee break. Sounds like a great ride. I’m jealous of the elevation and views. The only summits I’m reaching where I live are the tops of bridges and overpasses. )

One of kind day on Skyline Drive in Shenandoah NP. 70 degrees and road closed to cars due to debris from a hard winter. I passed a little old lady early in the ride and saw a hiker. Only humans on a 50 mile ride. I forgot my tool pouch, didn’t realize until I looked at this picture. Would have been a very long day if I flatted.

I remember that place because it comes after a couple zigs in the road with some particularly nasty of pavement. Nice riding around there, but I stick to the paved roads and usually drop into Lambertville for a coffee at Rojo's.
