BQ Un-Meeting in PDX Sept. 14-15

Here's a chance to meet, ride and camp with the man, myth and legend Jan Hiene. Multiple routes, gravel, pavement, long, short and plenty in between.

He will have completed Paris Brest Paris again by then and should have quite a story.

I'll probably pass on the story, but it would be good to get out and see some people I know.

I've volunteered ride support for Cycle Oregon.

I think it finishes on the 14th, but I'll need a few days to unwind.

So not at the top of my to do list, but it normally happens much further North so an opportunity none the less. I would like to see the Concours de machines Wiegle in person if he brings it.
