We Love Eugene

Eugene has a fantastic bike route system.  They even have buttons to push at intersections to turn the signal green at the side of the road just for bicyclists!  We loved it!  We will get to ride on more of the cycling network tomorrow as we head out of town.  

On my last post, I forgot to mention the great encouragement that we received on the way up.  We had more honks, waves and smiles than any other pass.  The best came from an elderly couple who both waved and gave us a huge thumbs up.  She had a great smile!!  The twists and turns of the road prohibits semi trucks and any vehicles over 35 feet so the cars we did encounter gave us great clearance.
