Last time was for the eclipse in Ontario a few years ago. No not Canada.
I'm 30 miles from Ontario Oregon, and 30 miles from Boise.

We have a taco time in caldwell. We are there once a couple years ago. I don't remember it being better or worse than tacobell. Tacos and tater tots.

The road to BB is a well maintained road. It pretty much ends at the ski resort. One way up, one way down.

Looks like a decent driving road.

35 mph speed limit, heavily patrolled, only one way down (they don't have to go after you, just wait for you at the bottom), solid double yellow lines all the way up, and bicycles.

Went on a group drive once through the Rowena Loops. Was gorgeous but I cringed with shame passing all the bicyclists. Yes, I slowed way down and gave a wide berth but some others didn't.

Hurricane Ridge is the same. It's still a wonderful drive.
I approve of cyclists and will pro-actively protect them on blind corners or hill crests.
112 up to Neah Bay is even better, but there it's boat trailers.
Just pull over for a bit and enjoy a nature bath for awhile.

I think it is more entertaining to watch them stop and then not be able to get unclipped from their pedals.

Why the hate? I love cycling. I've had the same bike for 40 years now. Just swapped the freewheel back to the wider ratio so I can keep climbing hills. I got too fat for the cool close ratios.

Local Toyota dealer got GR Corolla Circuit Edi in red available with no markup. Do I trade-in my Highlander & get it w crazy high 6.75% interest rate? Tempting, but nah… I’ll sit back a bit on GRC & see how it goes.
