AMC second go!
Bumped up to "expert" as expert and pros get to ride a bit extra. Didn't think I'd do well, but managed to get 2nd! Never won a segment, just consistently got 2nd on all of them. Ha.

Central Oregon Road Trippin' - Part 2: Bend with Mooreheads/Dixons
 |
| After Waldo Lake, the boys and I checked out the bike park at Bachelor. Just the kiddie zone. That was fun for a few hrs. |
 |
| The Bridges came up and met up with us for the next few days. |
 |
| I believe this is Tumalo Falls... that Shasta and I ran to, while the fam biked. |
 |
| Floating down the Deschutes... |
 |
| Aaron had this crazy contraption... |
 |
| We stayed with Lou Doo, Joel, & Mary pretty close to downtown. We had some great walks into town to check out the sights. |
 |
| And some great morning runs. Shasta at the tippy top of Pilot Butte with the Sisters in the background. |
 |
| Then we went up to Smith Rock area and found some camping behind it. This was during a morning run. |
 |
| Top of Grey Butte |
 |
| Nikko enjoying the water at Smith |
 |
| And we cruised over to Steelhead Falls which was a nice swimming hole. |
 |
| Grabbing food & brews at Sisters |
 |
| Lots of snacks on this trip... |
 |
| A quick visit to Sparks Lake... which was really really low... |
 |
| And there were leeches... |
 |
| I love the "canyoneering" at Sparks Lake. |
