La Pine to Bend - Day 30

Mileage:  50
Total Ascent:  2124

Another  great day of riding.  Our ride started out flat on good roads.  By mile 22 we had a good 10 mile mild climb from 2-6% grade treelined the entire way.    In our sight was Mt. Bachelor and sometimes 3 Sisters.

My Bachelor on the left and 3 Sisters on the right

Mt Bachelor

We went through the downtown of Bend but it was so busy we didn't try to find a place for lunch
until we got closer to our motel.  We stopped at this bakery/cafe and I had the best sandwiche - ham, apple and Brie on a sourdough role - delicious.

Then I get to the motel and find I have a single room for the night.  I am one of 6 riders that rotate roommates every night - but not tonight.  I thought there was a mistake but no one came and moved me out.

Tomorrow we are on our way to Sisters and for another day off.  Looking forward to this small town as its a quilting mecca and for yarn.  I might have to do some shopping.
