Well that was awesome

I spent less than ten hours out today! I missed a couple of the prettier roads south of Canby because I just missed a turn and met the big road a little early. Otherwise the trip was pretty uneventful.

The entire trip from Portland to Eugene is uphill going south and downhill going north overall, though I think Central Point Rd. is uphill both ways. But I think it gets flatter as you go south.

Threw together some statistics:

Day 1
Hours out: 11
Hours riding: 9.5
Miles: 76
Elevation change: +104 ft
MPH avg: 8

Day 2
Hours out: 13.25
Hours riding: 11.25
Miles: 90
Elevation change: +376 ft
MPH avg: 8

Day 3
Hours out: 10.25
Hours riding: 9
Miles: 77
Elevation change: -376 ft
MPH avg: 8.6

Day 4
Hours out: 9.5
Hours riding: 8.5
Miles: 67
Elevation change: -104 ft
MPH avg: 7.9

Total
Hours riding: 38.25
Miles: 310
MPH avg: 8.1

When I do this again, I'd like to do it in cooler weather and stay in Eugene for longer. I'd like to find an alternative to Central Point Rd., too, but I don't see much on the map.
