Today's ride from Depoe Bay to Florence started out cold again. We never really got the sun today at all. The good news is that there was a tailwind for most of the day.
Once again, we were treated with all-day stunning views and changing scenery. We had a lot of climbing today, but, either we are all starting to get used to long distances or the breathtaking scenery takes your mind off of the physical side of the rides.
We were very close to the ocean all day today. It seemed as though one set of views was replaced by even more stunning views at every turn and every hill.
We enjoyed rainforests, crashing breakers, lighthouses, natural blowholes, sea lions, eagles, and much, much more.
Tonight we are staying in Florence. Our hotel is right at the intersection of a river and the beach. Florence is a tourist destination point most known for its miles of sand dunes along the ocean.
We will be exploring Florence on our day off from riding tomorrow.
Today's stats: 66.7 miles about 3500 feet 5312 calories (had a BIG chocolate malt)
