Cottage Grove, OR





Sunday, June 26 2011. Left MAC at 10:45 AM heading south on Hwy 99. Passed through Amity. Rickreal, Monmouth, Corvallis, Junction City, Eugene and into Cottage Grove. Cottage Grove has a historical covered bridge route that runs near Dorena lake.
Had to get on I-5 south for a short distance as Hwy 99S runs through downtown Eugene, then heads out to the interstate to get to Cottage Grove. We experimented a little and actually found that we could follow 99 N back to MAC. Arrived home at 5:30 PM to enjoy burgers and brats and beer with the younger Mac Jenkins clan.
Total miles ridden were 245. P.S. Valley does not like to go real fast when passing slower vehicles. Only got to 90 MPH on a long stretch and she was clinching my hips with her knees. That means slow down!!
