Thanks. The shop (Velo Cult) does a custom program with Mark Nobilette.

I've been living with a sub-optimal workspace -- until now. Over the holidays I finally broke the logjam of resistance and remade the space. Totally digging it.

[RBW] Re: Oregon Outback
Really enjoyed your write-ups! You guys did it absolutely right. I had to chuckle when you described the conversation in the Silver Lake store of the hypothermic Lycra riders and the concern for their fate. I was one of those dorks and, if I had to do it all over again, I'd do it just like you did it! In fact, last year we did the route in the summer in four-ish days and it was a wonderful adventure. What stuck out to me was meeting all the great people in the most unexpected places. Great people. Beautiful, big country too. Thanks for taking the time to share, really good stuff!

[RBW] Re: Oregon Outback
I was one of the fendered few (riding the Nobilette). Made it to Prineville the first night--or was it morning--at 3:30am. With all the rain, hail and saturated roads, I was pretty cooked by that point. I had a little more in the tank but not enough to do the 140 left in one push. So off to Bend I rode! In hind sight, next time I'll have camping gear which opens up the options on this route. Love the photos posted thus far, looks like you guys had a stellar trip!
