Three Capes Route

Tillamook Bay City RV Park to Surf & Sand Inn, Pacific City

It rained last night and we were snug as bugs in a rug in our yurt! I forgot to take a picture of it! We were packing up this morning when it started to rain so we scooted the bikes back inside, put on all our rain gear and headed for Tillamook!

After breakfsst at McDonald's, we started out on the Three Capes Route and it was so beautiful. Lots of fishermen were out. The road was closed to cars six miles in but bikes were OK!

You can see why they had to close the road to cars but it was wonderful on bicycles.

Climbing to the top!

Emma and I hiked out to an old Blue Spruce

750 - 800 years old

In Netarts we found a grocery store selling Curry and breakfast burritos. Delicious.

There were outlets outside so we plugged in the bikes for the fun of it!

Will drove up and got out his scooter to show us. We went for a spin!

Finally, we rode up to three touring cyclists. They started last spring in Key West, rode up the Atlantic Coast, crossed the northern Tier and they are heading down the Pacific Coast to LA and San Diego!

Suddenly the terrain turned to Sand Dunes for several miles! What makes that happen?

Justin checked us in at the Surf n Sand Motel. He let us do laundry. Very nice place.

Nighty night!

Today's ride: 42 miles (68 km)
Total: 339 miles (546 km)
