Bikers

I hope the title didn't scare you.  Bikers aren't the same as they used to be.  The late 60's brought us the movie Easy Rider and in the 70's we all learned about the Hells Angels.  Today, there are bikers of all kinds.

We had 2 guests at The Craftsman B&B this past weekend, they were bikers.  So 2 people show up on a Harley, big deal.  No, the showed up on one bike.  That's right 2 people on 1 bicycle.  We have had many bikers stay with us.  We have had Coast to Coasters as mention in a 7/23/08 blog, but most are biking the Oregon Coast.

This couple shipped their bike out to a shop on the coast and started riding.  When they are done, they will ship it home.  They have done several biking vacations, even their honeymoon was a tandem bike vacation.  They were very funny and in good spirits the whole time they were with us.  They took the 3 Capes Scenic Drive from Tillamook to Pacific City.  It added the steep Cape Lookout section to the ride.  That caused a bit if grief for the team, and the rain didn't help much either.  They made it.  Mike changed their dinner reservations he had made for them eariler in the week to account for the course diversion.  A good dinner at the Bistro, a great breakfast at The Craftsman and they were on there way to Newport.  I remember riding in the car to Newport.  There is a monster hill on that route, hmmm, I'm glad I don't know how to ride a bike.

Oh, and a funny thing about outlaw bikers. . . they have a web site.
