I wound up taking my 6 yr old nephew with me, so I decided to do something reasonable for my first
time out. We took the bike trail from Bonneville Dam to Cascade Locks on the old hwy... I coulda
swore it was uphill both ways... And carrying 2 bikes down 4 flights of stairs was fun.... But lunch
at the Charburger is always worth it, especially with those giant cookies they make! The entire
thing is paved, and there are some great views of the river, the dam and some waterfalls. the noise
of I-84 is deafening at times, but a nice little ride anyways, about 7-8 miles round trip.
One thing I realized is that clothing is pretty important. I don't have any biking specific
clothing. I wore workout pants a tank and a hooded sweatshirt. It was cold outside, so I was
sweating and freezing at the same time. What would be a good clothing base for riding?
