We finished our adventure today by reaching the Oregon coast. We transitioned from the sunny forests to the foggy coast and enjoyed every second. The highlight was dipping our bikes into the Pacific Ocean, duplicating our feat of dipping them in the Atlantic at the start of our trip. I was overjoyed that my sons Jason and Nick were there to greet me at the end of our ride. They drove up from Santa Cruz and will accompany me home.
This was the fulfillment of a dream. I am thrilled that I completed the ride and that I accomplished this with a remarkable group of individuals who also had the time of their lives.
