The beginning. Shapes on the horizon eluded to the ride that was to come.
Starting to climb what would become 19miles of amazing switchbacks.
No guardrail between us and a 1,000ft drop.
Still climbing...
A glance aft, the road we were just on barely visible on the hillside below and Ashland, OR in the distance.
Looking ahead, we'll be there soon, still climbing...
And we made it, 19miles later.
Yeah, Jeremy!
Edge of the world, straight ahead.
A place where I could live.
Mt. McLaughlin. All 9,800ft of it. Wait til you see the pics I took with my good camera!
This cow somehow found its way out of the confines of the fence. You're free!
Midway through the 9 mile descent back into Ashland, a picture at 30mph and one big smile.
Pausing to take it in one last time before returning to Ashland.Photos now, words later.
I can still remember my rides up the Dolomites in Italy...almost life changing. Looks beautiful, what a ride!
