[OrRando] Cycle Oregon

[Michael Wolfe]

Andrew-

OR 224 and then FSR 46 are both paved all the way through to Detroit.  It's
a persistent climb up to about 10 miles before Breitunbush, and then a quick
drop down to Detroit.  I'm planning on running a brevet on that road late
next summer.

Have fun!
