Astoria to Lincoln City (and further) is a great ride out here. Wonderful views, varying roads, some twists, etc. What about a ride down 101 on the coast?

The leaf colors were at their peak, the road surface was fair to good, but having not ridden that track before, the variation between slow bends through farming areas and twisties through the hillsides and forest was daunting as to what to pay attention to most and when. I'll definitely run it again solo, so I can be better attentive to things...

I did Route 34 about a month or so ago, and I hear 138 is even better although perhaps slightly busier than 34. That’s on the To-Do list.
