McKenzie River Trail

i would ride the road up then the trail down. a couple of years ago me and some friends rode the trail up and the road down. it took around 9 hours and those last couple of hours on the volcanic rock were miserable. could've been great but we were so fatigued by then we couldn't get the most out of it. not to mention two flats, a broken seat and running out of water with over three hours to go. bring a water filter! either way you'll get worked. it is a beautiful trail system, this coming from a guy who hates river trails too.

Went for a spin on the lower part of the trail this afternoon. Conditions

couldn't be more perfect -- hard packed and great traction. Hardly any mud and

hardly any hikers. The roots aren't even slippery. I suggest early morning or

late afternoon to avoid the touristas, since this is bound to be a popular

weekend, being the one of the last before school starts and all.

wondering with all this rain if it will be a muddy mess.
