Hi,
Visiting inlaws in Portland for a couple days so that means I get
to bring a bike. Brought the Bleriot and took off this afternoon to
ride for a few hours. Stated off a little cold but not bad. Afterr
about an hour the flakes started to come down. Rode for another half
hour an I wa in the middle of a full- blown snow storm. Very fun
riding but At this point I was a long way from home and had to figure
out the best route home. Not easy...despite it's reputation as a
biking paradise, and it is a great place to ride, but let's just sAy
there are LOT of hills. I headed downtown then up Terwiliger (a
beautiful road). Was really getting thick at this point but I still
had to get to home base in Lake Oswego...this meant climbing over an
exticf volcano (now suburb). It was granny gear and sidewalks at this
point though traffic really started to thin out here... Nobody could
make it up the hill. Had a nice downhill ride and thankfully made it
home before dark. Bleriot did great but I could have used some wider
fenders. Will post pics once I figure out how to upload from Iphone.
Hoping to go for a ride again tomorrow but not too hopeful.

PS... Apologies for typos but I'm getting used to the little keyboard.
