After the run we packed up the stuff and headed west for a bike ride!

We parked at Alder Campground just N of Florence and biked N to Yachats and back. Pretty good ride, though the traffic/road conditions early sucked, and the wind on the way home SUCKED (though not as bad as we thought).

We didn't stop much at all 'til Yachats, then we hammered back all the way to Heceta Head, where we took a long break to check out the lighthouse. We really hammered on that ride back, especially up the hill and into the wind. We took turns leading, Dan first, then me, and so on. Dan was feeling good and so was I, though tired from the 12 earlier, so we were evenly-matched today.

Dan BIFFED IT HARD on the drive into the house, but thankfully he was OK. Nice to see old Heceta again! :)

The last few miles from Heceta to the car went by quickly. We thought about swimming in the Pacific in Florence, but the weather was shitty (mist, windy) and we were short on time.

After getting back into town, Dan and I went out boozing with Sara and Matt, to Bier Stein and then to Rennie's. The "local talent" was looking good at Rennie's! :)
