(BTW Day 5 is probably my favorite)

Day 1: Astoria to Garibaldi



Day 2: Garibaldi to Lincoln City



Day 3: Lincoln City to Yachats



Day 4: Yachats to North Bend

Day 6: Port Orford to Brookings

People's Coast Classic: Day 1


Today my dad, Jeff and I started on the People's Coast Classic.

We started in Astoria and boy was it cold. (See Jeff in blanket) He rode with the blanket for a ways, and it turned into a cape. I pretended that I didn't know him.

The ride today was a little over 58 miles. The sun eventually burned off the clouds and we rode the final part in the sunshine. Now it is sunny at our camp in Garibaldi.

Tomorrow is the longest and toughest day of the ride which should be about 70 miles and offers a number of hills. Here's to hoping that Jeff doesn't have to pull me up them.

We shot some Northern Rangers videos along the way and I'll get those up when we get back.

But for now I'm going to go find some dinner and then probably go to sleep.


Oyster Urban Adventure Race

Coming to a city near you! The Oyster Urban Adventure Race.

This is the "Ultimate Urban Adventure Race" which combines pure athleticism with thought-provoking strategy and creative tasks.

The race requires athletes and their teams to utilize a variety of disciplines to circumnavigate a number of cities including Seattle and Portland.

Your team will run-bike-paddle-climb- and perform other crazy athletic stuff to race around the city, answering clues and completing tasks. This amped, one-day version of the Amazing Race will have you doing things and in places you never experienced before!

Here, just take a look:

I didn't get it finished tonight, so tune in tomorrow for a new Northern Rangers video from this weekend.

Views from Poo Poo Point

It's February, but feels like April, in Washington. So the Northern Rangers headed out for a hike today. Check out the view from the top.
