That’s two
The mlcm (and I) pause for a breather at Ripplebrook Ranger Station (note the OPEN sign, in February. I’m glad the government’s stupid self-immolatory budget cutting hasn’t cut completely into staffing the ranger stations) after spending the last 6 hours riding into enthusiastic headwinds as I rode the first half of my Portland-Ripplebrook-Portland permanent.
The return trip was a bit faster (because of downhill + tailwinds; I even got to stop several times to take scenic pictures instead of taking them en passant,) even though I didn’t have much puff left in me; I finished the loop in 10h55, returning home only about 45 minutes after nightfall.
