Keep The Ocean On Your Right
Day 14: Tillamook to Neskowin Today's Distance: 54 miles (including backtracking mileage) Total Distance: 614 miles I started off the day in good spirits. I knew it was supposed to rain today and I was ready for it. When I got going it was only cloudy and sprinkling a little. I hoped it would stay that way, but I knew it wouldn't. On this part of the Oregon Coast Bike Route you leave the 101 and take The Three Capes scenic route. Bad day to take a scenic route. And as I would find out later, "Cape" is just a 4-letter word for big ass hill next to the water! This route has 3 of them apparently. It seemed like as soon as I got on this route, it started raining harder and the farther I went the harder it got. Eventually I started my first climb of the day. I thought at the time that I was climbing up the first cape, Cape Lookout. When I finished the hill a lot quicker than I anticipated, I was surprised, but I never checked my map...
