Solo ride to Tillamook

Left home to just run a loop around a local lake, but once that was done, decided to extend the ride a bit and head out to coast the back way. The road I took is one of the less travelled roads that follows the Nestucca river. My first time on this road this season. The road itself was in pretty poor shape with lots of debris and potholes through from the winter. There is also a short gravel section on this road, but fairly well packed. Anyway, quite an adventure, don't think I'll be taking this road again until later in the season :).

On the positive, the river was full and flowing and the views were pretty amazing. The road pops out in Beaver, OR by the coast, so rode that up to Tillamook and then Hwy 6 back to Portland.
