Oregon Coast Ride: Surfing USA

Today I rode by myself again.  In the morning I passed a surf shop that wasn't open but had a photo-op place outside by the road. Today's ride was pretty nice as the road goes close to the ocean.  I set a pleasurable pace and stopped here and there.  I once went out on a sandy beach, wanting to push the bike along the beach for a while but I just got the bike sandy.  The tide was coming in and the beach wouldn't have been great to go a distance along it.  So it was back to the road again. Brompton out on the surf. Siletz Bay. The Pacific coast. Self portrait. I'm not sure if Depoe Bay does really have the smallest harbor, it still looked kind of big to me, but it has an impressive narrow entrance through rock walls over which the 101 bridge spans. If the sign says so it must be true. The Otter Crest Loop south of Depoe Bay was the best stretch to ride.  It runs parallel to 101 and due to it's narrowness is primarily a one-way str...

Lake Georgetown, Texas

I really need to stop being lazy and write the report of our hike from April around Lake Georgetown.  A co-worker and I took a few days after a work meeting in Austin, Texas to hike around the nearby Lake Georgetown.  I didn't really know what to expect about the hike.  It did get selected because it's the only hike that's long enough multiple days.  Most parts of Texas appear not to have much in way of public land. Taking hiking gear along an airplane flight is actually not to bad, especially since you don't want to take to much along anyway as you'll have carry it otherwise.  The only annoying thing is that the cooking fuel needs to be purchased after arrival.  Which in my case is IsoPro and I never use a full can of it either. The hiking trail around Lake Georgetown impressed me quite a bit.  I was expecting it to turn boring any moment but instead it proved to be interesting landscape that varied from area to area.

Standing Indian Loop Hike

Happy to share this trip. Leaving the kids with the grandparents we get to hike several days in  the Nantahala National Forrest.  Our route is a 30 mile loop with a significant amount on the Appalachian trail.  We arrived late afternoon at the Standing Indian Campground (backcountry trail head to be exact).  My wife got to experience the drill of picking up the rental car from the airport and swinging by REI to get the camping fuel for the hike.  For some strange reason though we ended up spending more time and money there end ended up with a few gear enhancement including trekking poles for me. Interactive route map. Packed and ready for the hike. Initially our plan was to hike to the newly constructed Long Branch shelter but it was getting late and we found a pretty meadow on the Long Branch creek that was perfect for camping.  After we got the tent setup a strong rain passed over us.  So we were lucky to duck into the tent and stay...
