Nice!!
The loop around the Strawberry Mountains has really nice scenery. I've hiked in those mountains a few times and really love that country.
Some year, not sure when, I'd like to ride in Cycle Oregon. Have friends at work who ride the event every other year.
Have a great ride to Burns and hopefully the traffic won't be to bad.

I agree. It is a GREAT tour, no matter what the route.

I wish I could have ridden this tour. I was born in Lakeview which is not too far from Frenchglen and Burns.

Cycle Oregon is fantastic fun through beautiful country (regardless of route), fabulous support, and lots of new friends. Do they still do the daily newspaper?

I hope they repeat that route again. I would do it in a heartbeat. I need to stay more informed; so, I don't miss these opportunities.
