Day Off - Day 36

So today is our day off in Cascade Locks,  A small little town which is the gateway to the Gorge and the "Bridge to the Gods" that we will ride over tomorrow to cycle into Washington, our last state.

This bridge is a steel bridge and you can see through to the water below.  We walked over to the bridge to see if I even wanted to ride on it as I dont like heights.  I think it will be ok as long as I don't look down.

We were walking down Main Street and this is what we found.  A solid bike station that is bolted down.  There is a place to steady your bike, a pump, tools that a person would need to fix pretty much anything on the bike, and a bike stand.  Its pretty cool.

We took a peek into this open door and there were 2 women sculptors.  One making an eagle and the other creating big foot.  They are being commissioned to make them and will tour the country.  She will make 9 others of the eagle for sale.

Big Foot

Now its off for a hot dog for lunch and putting my feet up for our long day to Packwood, Washington tomorrow.  104 miles with around 8,000 feet of climbing.  Now this will be the cream of the crop of climbing  if I can make the entire ride on this very challenging day.
