Cannot wait for the weekend. One more Columbia Gorge adventure and looks like amazing weather.

Went to Ft Clatsop today, Lewis and Clark's furtherest West outpost on their journey. It's crazy to imagine what they endured and ventured through. America wasn't even 30 years old when they started their journey into the unknown. #traveloregon

Rode from Portland to Astoria today. 100mi with over 20ish of it gravel. I'm shorts no less, doing Feb right. #behindthebars

Walked just a little of this magical trail this weekend and it's sowed the seeds of wanting to do more, maybe the whole thing... #pct

Line selection is crucial. #trustyswitchblade

Last week at this time I was standing on mountains staring at volcanoes. Need to get back to that. #caseofthemondays

I really enjoyed nature trying to take back this sign. #eaglecreek #tunnelfalls

Didn't get passed by any cars up #McNamee. Such a good road.

Wed: Scattered clouds with a high chance of pain cave. Thanks #pbs

#Wildwood morning.

Needed to just get out this week so went and saw #Broncho last night. Went in barely knowing anything about them but was pretty stoked. #latergram cause #dougfirlounge doesn't have any cell reception; which is a blessing in disguise these days.

Nice little evening run to the bluffs.

#spring #sauvieisland

I now understand the point of gaiters. #nickeatonridge

You like switchbacks? Got plenty on #nickeatonridge

Here we go. #hermancreek #backpacking #solo

Feel like I just crawled out of Disney's '92 classic Fern Gully. First solo backpacking trip and first one dealing with snow. #hermancreek #columbiarivergorge

Starting to feel like I live in a Patagonia catalog. #tomlike

Ridge Camp. Sorta wished I could have stayed in there, but no go with a hammock setup. #latergram

Mt. Defiance from Green Pt Mtn. #latergram (cause I had no reception)

#mthood was having none of it though sending 50mph gusts and dark clouds at me. #traveloregon #7wondersoforegon

Pulling photos off my real cam after last weekend... Most the volcanoes were shrouded in clouds. So I just ate lunch chillin with #mtsthelens #traveloregon

I should have been working on my kitchen all day. But instead I ran around the woods with these buncha jerks. Good day.

Bro do you even ultralight?

The #elk were a lot closer today. #oregonvibes #traveloregon

This photo of fern gully is nice but total bullshit. The route was on dirt bike trails that was all exposed roots, hills and puddles. But I only stopped here for a photo. #winchestertrails #coosbay #trustyswitchblade

Closest I've ever been to an #elk today. Didn't think that hedge would slow them much so I kept on riding.

This #Budweiser mug commemorates the 1984 #Olympics where #America won 4 of 8 cycling golds, in large part due to our sophisticated blood doping program. Do drugs, win races.

Priorities.

#crosscrusade #hopworks

I dream of one day legitimately winning a crusade. Molly "fast as fuck" Cameron not only wins her race but my goddamn race too. Mad props today.

Aunika is one of the youngest racers to ever get up to Cat A (elite category) and she crushed it almost getting a top 10. #trustyswitchblade

That was an expensive pre-ride lap. #crosscrusade

Last night we were serenaded by the one and only @papatong HBD

Almost got blown over by old man winter on my inaugural ride on the #Raleigh

Puddle Time at Barton. #crosscrusade #bartonpark

Molly and crew making Barton look like a gravel crit. #crosscrusade

Going back through photos I shot this while not looking. Points for the jump into the drop, but sort of lost them for the fender... @crosscrusade #bartonpark

The light made @dogg_zone looks so fab before the death drop (that was pretty easy).

Her second A race. Def need to work on her roadie skills.

Progress. Love hate right now. #reclaimed

Today was a good day. Didn't have to use my AK. #sandyridge #trustyswitchblade

Somebodies old flooring is now my bar. Now I just need more whiskey. #reclaimed #nofilter

Early this winter we got this little bantam chicken, she is about 1/4 the size of a standard hen. We figured she'd never make eggs worth eating. But lately this little girl has been producing a lot of very cute little white eggs.

Was nice to get out while we still had a bit of good weather.

Two great breweries plus a great design studio equals cannot miss. Solid beer and my favorite can design in a long while. #plazm #thecommons #fortgeorge

Good times with my better half, @herroashree in the #columbiarivergorge #capehorn #traveloregon

Not this time. But soon.

#oregonvibes

Managed not to take the ambulance to the hospital after my bike wreck Fri. But found my way there anyway late last night from an allergic reaction from cleaning my road rash. #ugh #legacyemanuel

Pro tip: this us not how to spend your Friday. Ouch. Thanks @flail_chest for saving my butt on Skyline.

A good start to the trip. Checked out the Blue Mtns for a night. Now off to Eagle Cap. #wallowas

Baker City Crit #bakercity #obra

Dear @cdudleyt and Andrew D, thanks for making an ad campaign to make me come explore a part of that state I had no idea about. #traveloregon #7wonders

Just got back from hiking a few into the Wallowas. Safe. Stinky. Mind blown. So good. #wallowas #traveloregon #7wonders

America the beautiful. #wallowas #traveloregon #oregon #mountains #wilderness

@fergus_among_us flew up the trail thanks to his caffeinated wings. #redbull #wallowas

Already need to figure out plans to get back out there. #wallowas

#Wieden+Kennedy has a fun gallery show by Ryan Heshka this month if you're in the hood.

Fun morning of swimming at Oneonta Falls after scrambling over a log jam and a 5' stream. #columbiarivergorge #traveloregon

I swear I'll stop posting these soon enough. #wallowas #backpacking #traveloregon #nofilter

My cat is more of a playa than me.

One week later, missing the wilderness. #wallowas #traveloregon #7wondersoforegon

Cool guy chillin in the woods.

Gold soldier spotted on the Vestas building.

How Bill Davenport says goodbye to @wiedenkennedy

Yup. There is a marching band in my office. Only in #portlandia

Not so good at this taking it easy thing...

It's hard to see but these birds were doing this spiral pattern where the far ones would fly ahead and hit the water while the rest hunted for a minute before it was their turn.

In search of the road less travelled.

Fresh shoes fresh shorts. #feelsgoodman #nike

Photo cannot do it justice. #mthood #willametteriver

Almost looks like a real city. #nofilter

Bluffs+Tecate

Birdies in the morning light.

Summer colors

Vernonia

Found some nice spots at the Church of the West Hills today.

Lots of #gourmetcentury riders out today, they looked hungry.

This tree's roots has filled every inch of concrete where it was planted.

Remember the days when things go right. Because some days they won't. Third flat on the side of hwy, can't get a patched tube to hold air. #fml

The sidewalk never ends. But occasionally the pavement does.

Took this for you @herroashree

I need a weekend from my weekend. Ugh.

Jumped around rocks, played in some tide pools and watched waves. Doing my inner 8yo proud.

Hope that the gravel is primed for grinding this weekend. #gravelepic

Lunch with a rooftop view. If you look carefully you can see #mthood

Marek dropping me on the first climb at the #gravelepic #trustyswitchblade

Made a custom cue sheet too. No dealing with maps in the backwoods. #gravelepic

Serious bike-life upgrade. #yakima

Some nice forest service roads out here. #gravelepic #trustyswitchblade

Great couple. #sierraandnategetmarried

#sierraandnategetmarried

Give the kid a hip and he'll find some air. #trustyswitchblade

Crushed gravel. Crushed dreams. Crushed hearts. #oregonstampede #nofilter

Found this lil dude hanging out this morning.

The face of victory. Ready for my gravel race @oxygen_debt ?

Morning peloton before the gravel blew it to bits. #oregonstampede #trustyswitchblade

Today we took a tour of Bull Run, learned lots about our city's unique unfiltered and beautiful water source. #bullrun #bullrunlake #mthood

The Dechutes near Tygy Valley was super cool today. I usually only see it at the confluence of the Columbia where it's flat and boring. Need to go back out there. This photo doesn't do it justice.
