We have been very fortuitous on our journey so far with only 3 days of rain of which only one was a riding day (our entrance to astoria.) the mornings are very cool with nighttime temperatures requiring a fleece and often a heavy layer of dew. During the day we can get up in the mid seventies in the sun but for the most part the afternoon highs are very pleasant even while cycling uphill. The most remarkable thing for of is how the sun has changed during the trip. We have travelled some 950 miles (34k feet climbing) which is enough to start seeing the effect of latitude on the sun intensity. What was once a nice warm glow has now turned into a sunburning heat. It looks like i might need more than one bottle of sunscreen after all.
