Iron Butt Training

OK, so we're not quite ready for the 1000 miles in one day that it takes to join the Iron Butt club... but we did some training this weekend. Shannon and I took off Saturday from Portland and rode I-84 to Baker. Yes, as an old school Eastern Oregonian, I call it Baker not Baker City. We stayed at our favorite hotel in Oregon, the Bridge Street Inn.

The next morning, after cleaning the crap some assholes dumped on my bike to help them forget how shitty their lives are, we took off towards Portland. However, rather than take the easy way back, we took the scenic route.

Baker, Sumpter, Bates, Wasco, Condon, Monument, Fossil, Long Creek.

HWY 7 to 26. HWY 26 to HWY 395. HWY 395 to 402, then to 19. HWY 19 to 206. 206 to 97, then back to I-84.

We figure we made the better part of 700 miles in 2 days.

We're getting there.
