Absolutely gorgeous early October day. Probably the last 80-degree day for the year. Rode the Portland Velo Hills and Rollers on Hillside route. Started from Liberty High School in Hillsboro. The first 14 miles covers Helvetia Rd (past the Roloff Farm), then Jackson Quarry Rd and eventually Pumpkin Ridge Rd. Just over 1000 feet climbing in the 14-mile stretch. First rest stop was at the Saint Francis of Assisi Catholic Church (mile 19.2). Another short climb on Clapshaw Rd, just before Hillside (mile 25). Several long rollers on Hillside, hence the route name. Had to stop at a little alpaca farm for some photos. Not much Halloween decor out yet. The final 16.5 miles was the flat section, covering Verboort Rd, Cornelius-Schefflin Rd, Wren Rd, Leisy Rd, to Glencoe Rd and then a 5-mile stretch on Evergreen Parkway to 59th. The final 4 miles was on Brookwood Parkway to Jacobson St and back to the school. Minimal wind today, with temps in the mid to upper 70s.
