Feels great to get out again. This "shelter at home" stuff has me climbing the walls! My son and I did a short ride along the Columbia River from Windermere to Brisco. It's brand new pavement and very little traffic because of the shut down, so a perfect first ride of the year. Nice to blow the cobwebs out!

Great view, enjoy the wide open space!
No Rockies for us this year and the bike is still in pieces
We live in a area that is known for good bike roads ( in Illinois) and we've been hearing hoards of bikes on nice days, but the local 5/0 has been harassing them if they pull over for a smoke.

Glad to see you are out and about! Thank you once again for some great pictures. I need to get mine out and take advantage of these empty roads.

Those are epic pictures, They can easily be used as desktop background images!

We have a week of sunny and 12c-15c (mid 50s), so I bought my insurance and blew some of the cobwebs out. Feels great to be out again!
That's the Columbia River, just north of Radium Hot Springs, with the Purcell Mountains in the background. The Rockies are behind me.
