The Oregon Coast is a hilly, foggy, amazing adventure that is a part of the Pacific Coast bicycle touring route. It is almost exclusively on US Highway 101, with a few deviations I'll mention. My plan was to combine local transit with bike touring to do a loop of the coast, tag the California welcome sign and return to Portland, relatively unscathed. On this edition of the pod we follow along on Days 0 and 1 of the adventure as I ride the buses from Portland to Newport, and get rolling to Florence, Oregon.
