    Wow! what a trip 3 days 1237 miles, What Hoot, great roads, great scenery, Be very hard to have been better other than I saw like over 100 degree temps in the lowlands, whew! thats getting warm huh? just don't stop moving.

    So thought I'd share some photos of the adventure.
    First stop, LOL Jason just might reconize this one.

    Glad you finally got to do a little road trip, it's been a long time coming, to bad work got in your way for Mark's ride, I always love your pics because I just can't make myself get off the VFR when railing those great roads, Eastern Oregon is defiantly made for riders who LVCRVS :thumbsup:

    nice pics. some of those could be postcards. I have been gone for a week (working not out of town) so my riding has been to work and back although a couple days back I took the scenic route home. it's just getting kind of dusky when I get home so the deer worry me so I usually stay on the freeway...

    beautiful ride.


    I'm headed down to Orygun in 3 weeks for a 3 day concert in Lebenon,
    but I'm taking 7 days off.
