For those who have missed the last week of writings and ramblings, below you will find a daily summary. The take home message is that we are further along than we thought we might be at this point. This message will be posted from Walla Walla today and from there it is about 250 miles to Portland. Depending on the winds, we should get to Portland Wednesday or Thursday next week. Our plan is to rest for a day, and do the ride to Astoria as a Grande Finale Century. If anyone in the northwest wants to join us for this event, please let us know.
