Day 7 was wonderfully sunny. We were accompanied by Ian Hincks, another cyclist we met at Cape Disapointment. He started his trip in Toronto, Canada. We rode 45 miles before lunch, crossing the Colombia River into Astoria, Oregon. The bridge was 4 miles long! We ate lunch at a park and enjoyed the sun and some frisbee. The next 18 miles were treacherous. We had to climb two long, steep hills. Michelle got another flat tire on the first hill, which was a bummer. The climb was hard, but we had an incredible view of the Oregon Coast from the top. We finally made it to Nahalem State Park, ready to feast on breakfast burritos and hot chocolate. This was our longest day yet, covering a total of 63 miles.
Ian, Me, Phillip, Jonah, Michelle
