      I just put together a 5 Day bike packing adventure around the west side of Mt. Hood.
      Planned for early September…. Can’t wait!
      It’s been too long since I’ve camped off the bike!

        I’ve fitted new tires for the summer. While I’m still undecided on the tan-wall look versus the classic all-black, there’s feel like a smoother roll.

                  The last gravel tour I did was the Oregon Cascades Volcanic Arc (OCVA) the route was built by the guys at OMTM.
                  It’s pretty epic! And we edited it in the start and tail end in order to end at or near home. I can’t believe I haven’t posted here about it… it’s an amazing route and one to have on your bucket list if you live in Oregon for sure!

                              @Brock I've immediately added this to my bucket list... but I need to know the details, where is this? what route? - it looks incredible!

                                It’s called the Oregon Cascade Volcanic Arc or (OCVA) I’ll add a link to the route

                                https://www.omtm.cc/ocva400

                                The OMTM guys did it pretty fast. We opted for a more enjoyable speed and completed it in 6 days. We stayed at two hotsprings and checked out a lot of off route water features and springs along the way.

                                  Not really a gravel bike, it defies categories.

                                  You're it.
