Decided to do a ride that went by my accident scene in early April. Started from Riverview Park in Independence. The first 5 miles went through Monmouth then onto Highway 194. A couple of medium-length climbs before dropping down to the Kings Valley Rd intersection. The same intersection that the 72 year-old guy was cited for not obeying a traffic control. Turned onto Kings Valley Rd and another climb just past the Arlie Rd junction. A helmet-less e-biker passed me on the hill, but caught him on the downhill. A nice 7.5 mile cruise to the turn for Pedee. First rest stop was at the Fire Station (mile 17.5). A couple short climbs past Pedee Church and school then a downhill just before the Ritner Covered Bridge (mile 21.3). The next 4 miles continued on Kings Valley Rd to the Maxfield Creek Rd turn-off. This is a 7.5 mile segment, with the first 3 miles a gentle climb. Nice, long downhill past the Arlie Winery to the Arlie Rd turn. Next up was a 6.5 mile stretch to the Highway 99W intersection and the second stop at the little honey stand on the east side of 99W. The route follows Suver Rd to Corvallis Rd, then heads south on Corvallis Rd for 2.2 miles. A little tailwind on Corvallis Rd followed by headwind on Buena Vista Rd. The final 6.1 miles was on Corvallis Rd back to Independence.
