Alsea - Lobster Valley CCW

Drove to Alsea for this ride. Perfect morning conditions; no wind, low 60s, partly to mostly cloudy. First 20 miles is on Highway 34. Minimal traffic for a late-summer Sunday morning. Stopped at the bridge on Five Rivers Rd, just after getting off 34. The next 11 miles is on Five Rivers Rd. Some of the best, smooth-riding miles around. Went about 1.5 miles past the Fisher Covered Bridge then turned around and stopped at the bridge for photos. Returned on Five Rivers Rd to the Lobster Valley Rd turn-off. Rode 9 miles on Lobster Valley to the sharpe curve and turn for Preacher Creek Rd. The final 13 miles consists of 3 miles on Lobster Valley Rd, then Deadwood Highway, or Highway 501. There are two big climbs on Deadwood Highway, with a downhill in between. Cruised back to Alsea and the library.
