That's not a reference to the Oregon territory, it is the 5442 feet we climbed today on our 70 mile ride from Williamstown to Amherst. Because we failed to find the turnoff from the bike trail, I clocked in at 77 miles for the day. My legs handled the hills pretty well yesterday, but they complained a bit today. However, with the climbs you not only get great views, you get some wonderful downhill swoops to cool you down and rest your legs a bit.
A beautiful sky as rain clouds threatened, but our luck held and we didn't get rain. Tomorrow's forecast looks terrible, but so did today's.
More interesting sights along the way
Our highest altitude, 2087 feet, and a three mile climb!
The doorknob of tonight's dessert place. I had bada bing ice cream, which featured dark chocolate and cherries. Yum!
