The Pictures!!!

Soooo - I just made it to Cambridge, Idaho. The last couple of days have been a bit long. I've had some sore legs, but I'm hoping they'll come around in the next few days. My rear derailleur (for those of you who even care) is pretty much crapped out, so I'm hoping to limp it to the next bike shop where I can get a new one. On another note, I had a good birthday dinner last night with a group of bikers from Oregon. They pretty much took me under their wing and invited me to a group dinner where they proceeded to sing me happy birthday. I really wish I could have at least talked to some of you guys that called yesterday, but I guess I'll take what I can get! I'm headed to Council, Idaho tonight, then continuing on towards Missoula tomorrow! Here are pictures from the past week or so. Hope all is well with everyone. - Cameron

Technical Difficulties

Hey all - I'm in Dayville, OR now - almost 450 miles since I left Portland. I'm staying in a church hostel tonight, which was a very welcome surprise - shower, laundry, kitchen, etc. Anyway, since I last wrote, I've left Corvallis and gone through Lebanon, Sweet Home, Tombstone Pass, Saniam Pass, Sisters, Redmond, Ochoco Pass, Mitchell, and now Dayville! You can probably figure out my route from those towns......The reason I say technical difficulties is because I haven't been able to upload pictures, and this computer doesn't seem to be agreeing with it. Anyhoo, I'll upload some pics asap. Hope everyone's well!!!.......I'm hoping to push to Jackson, WY for July 4th! We'll see!

The Pacific Coast!

So I made it to the Pacific yesterday and stayed at Cape Lookout State Park. Today I started inland and just made it to Corvallis......now I'm at around 200 miles so far! I have some good stories about people I've met in the past couple days, but they'll have to wait til next time cause it's time to go get some food and find a place to sleep tonight. Enjoy the few pictures that I've taken in past couple days.

Welcome to Portland

So here I am in Portland, OR sittin' at Mike Riscica's house, with his puppy Molly at my feet. Traveling went smoothly yesterday - Mike picked me up at the airport, fed me a fantastic dinner, and set me up with a spare room to get my stuff together. My bike's together and my paniers are packed - Now it's off to the P.O. to mail some stuff home and to send some things that I won't need everyday a couple weeks down the road. I'll be out at the Coast tomorrow dipping my wheels if all goes well. Hope everyone back East is having a great start to Summer!!! bye for now

Flying to Portland, OR on Tuesday!!!

It's been a while since my last post, but now the trip's really coming up. I'm in Littleton, NH now at my dad's place, and will be here til Tuesday morning. Then I'll be flying from Boston on Tuesday afternoon, getting into Portland around 8:30 that night. I'm gonna be staying for at least one night in Portland with this guy Mike, who I found through this great site - www.couchsurfing.com. On Wednesday or Thursday, I'll be headed out to the coast, dip my bike in the Pacific, then I'll head south for a bit before biking back inland. I'll write again soon.....hopefully with some stories from the first few days of adventure. paz.
