It was a good ride today. A bit cold but a good ride. We stayed on 101 up to Ophir. Nice coast with lots of fog. You can see the fog rolling in in the picture below.

At Ophir we left 101 and turned inland. A very quite little road and we even broke out of the fog for a while. That was a beautiful section of riding. Lots of rolling hills and a very serene pastoral setting. It struck several of us that Southern Oregon is earlier in their season than Victoria is. I saw a cherry tree in full blossom today. Ours bloomed weeks ago. Same thing with the rhododendrons. Interesting.

At about 63 kilometers we rejoined 101 and continued to ride on the coast. The fog was still hanging in there. I didn’t really clear until we made it into camp — probably around 4:00. Quite a few hills today, including 1 that topped out at 220 meters. Not a steep climb, but it was quite sustained. It is truly an amazing coastline. We continue to have the interesting haystack rock structures just off the coast.
