Day 6; Mckenzie Bridge to Redmond about about 60 miles and 5000' vertical
I got up early to start my process up the 22 mile Mckenzie pass. Phew, that was some work! But beautiful ride and not many car on this road. Summit allowed views of the mountains in the peaks in Oregon. Then it was a fast descent into Sisters Oregon where I met T and L for some lunch at the Sisters Bakery. Ate a donut and powered into Redmond with a tailwind. Ate some dinner then remembered Todd's son Andrew was running the Western States 100. We followed some very exciting Twitter feeds and watched the process. Then he was in the lead so we watched the live finish of Andrew being the youngest person to win this super bowl of ultra marathons. Wow, way to go Andrew! You are amazing. Also thanks to Mary Yocum to letting us stay at your house in Redmond.
