Hey Patrick, that was my second time up and over Old Man Pass and into Randle from the South. I gotta say, I'm super impressed with folks, such as you and your pals, that have come up from the other side. There is some serious climbing from that way. That said, I really want to do this whole loop in reverse even though it would be much tougher. I'll post up a map of the loop we did this weekend. And yeah, that was totally weird seeing another Bombadil in Gifford and that it belonged to the only other touring cyclist we saw. The Bombadil's riding partner appeared to be on some kind of sweet bright yellow custom rig, or so it seemed. When they passed us it was on the road up to Stabler. Perhaps that Bombadil owner will chime in.
And yeah, the ride into Portland from Carson is a mixed bag. --mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
