Covered Bridge Scenic Bikeway in Cottage Grove, Oregon

Training continues on the 35 mile Covered Bridge Scenic Bikeway.


Steve, Janet and Michael at the Mosby Covered Bridge.

Janet crossing the Dorena Covered Bridge, arguably
the prettiest of the three we saw this day.

The bridged along the route are pretty hefty due to
this being a Rails to Trail path.

along the Covered Bridge Scenic Bikeway.

Heading out to the Covered Bridge Scenic Bikeway

Bringing 3 trikes can pose some challenges. Here you see Janet's trike on the back of our car hanging vertically on a Thule trunk rack, Steve's on top of Michael's car on a Thule roof rack which we modified to hold a trike, and finally Michael's trike hanging on the back of Michael's car.

Michael's ICE trike loaded on a  www.hitchrider.com bike rack. This is an awesome set up. Easy to load and very stable in transit. Bill at Hitch Rider has excellent customer service. Check them out for any hitch mount bike rack set ups.
