La Doyenne - De Ronde van Oost Portlandia. From the ride description at https://ridewithgps.com/ambassador_routes/210-la-doyenne-de-ronde-van-oost-portlandia: "It will hurt". Well, the ride lived up to the billing. This is the toughest ride I've done in recent years...52 miles and nearly 9,000' of climbing. Tough climbing is the point of the ride and this one delivers. The ride is actually supposed to be 50 miles but I had some GPS routing shenanigans that had me repeat one climb 4 times before Davina talked me through finding the turn I needed to continue the route. Cool, cloudy, dry weather, perfect for a ride like this. Would have liked it to be clear so that I could have captured shots of the city but will have to get that done next time. If there is a next time. Which most definitely will not be any time soon :-)
