[OrRando] Route help please

[Bert Lutz]

Just to be different, I'd think about a drive out to Champoeg SP.  Ride West
on Champeog Rd and cross 219 to warm up.  Soon after crossing 219, start
your TT. Transition to Riverside Dr.  Take Mission or Blanchet into St Paul
for refreshment and ride French Prairie back to the park to cool down.

The traffic is very low.  There is one small climb and you can choose a day
with the wind that you like.

Or how about the climb up Bald Peak from the intersection of 219 and Bald
Peak Rd to Bald Peak SP?  Mostly a gentle climb with no traffic.

I need to change the time trial specs.

It only needs to be ridden once a month, so driving to the place would be
OK.

A climb or two would be a good thing.  I'll have more potential to gain time
if
there are climbs involved.  It's all about improving time.

The base level requirement is three miles of road on which I won't encounter
cross
traffic.
