Another rendition of the Six Covered Bridges ride. Got off to a later start than usual. Start from Pioneer Park in Stayton. Right off the bat I could tell this was going to be a mental challenge due to the temperature and humidity. Not overly hot, mid to upper 70s, but humidity around 60%. Bridge #1 is at the 11 mile mark. About 1/3 of the total climbing occurs in the first few miles. Bridge #2, Shimanek, is at mile 15.2. Bridge #3 and my first rest stop, Lacomb, is at mile 23.6. Bridge #4, Hoffman, is at mile 33.7. Had hoped to stop in Scio to get water and electrolyte drinks, but did not see a convenient store. Rode through the bonus bridge in Scio then continued on to bridge #5, Gilkey, at mile 43.7. Rest stop #2 was at mile 46.4, a nice little store on Jefferson-Scio Rd. Much needed beverages. The electrolyte drink really helped. There is a short, steep hill at mile 48.3. The final 8 miles was mostly tailwind. A stupid dog came out of nowhere on Shelburn Rd. Left him in the dust.
