good morning! I rode up the coast and into Portland to have dinner with my niece. Going to catch up with Opus for lunch and then decide where to ride to today. I am thinking of Crater Lake because I haven't been there in years. Or maybe east. Or north...

Hmmm...  Maybe I should do something out of character and ask about that. We already reached a dead end on Titlow Rd due to snow.

Yep, sort of...  Got to Fossil but the pumps were closed. Since I was so low on fuel I went north to Condon. Decided to get a room here at an old motor lodge. The restaurant in town was already closed so I zapped a burrito at the mini mart and bought a 6er of good beer. My favorite road today was 216 along the Deschutes River Smile

ok, here we go:

Started thursday morning very excited.  had a couple cups of coffee and was ready to go.  I packed up the night before, so there was just a few things to load up and I was on my way!

http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa330/cvergi01/IMG_0462.jpg

made it to the ferry docks in good time.

http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa330/cvergi01/IMG_0464.jpg

after cruisin for a bit, I noticed that it was sunny out!  time to take a pic to rub in the faces of all the naysayers  Bigsmile

http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa330/cvergi01/IMG_0465.jpg

stopped in seabeck because it was just purty

http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa330/cvergi01/IMG_0466.jpg

Picked up a tent along the way and took a pic before crossing the border into oregon.  it was very windy

http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa330/cvergi01/IMG_0467.jpg

ran into a couple pedalbikers that were on their way to eureka from everett and took a pic looking over tillamook

http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa330/cvergi01/Image06022011163738.jpg

http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa330/cvergi01/IMG_0471.jpg

my home for the night in Hebo  Headscratch

http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa330/cvergi01/IMG_0474.jpg

had to stop along the way to adjust a few things  Embarassment

http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa330/cvergi01/IMG_0469.jpg

made it to fortuna, a little worn out, andrew was kind enough to help me out with a place  to stay...his gs in pic

http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa330/cvergi01/IMG_0477.jpg

http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa330/cvergi01/Image06032011170211.jpg

we took some amazing roads.  the likes that I have never seen.  I thought I knew how to ride pretty good, till these old people learned me a thing or two  Embarassment

http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa330/cvergi01/Image01061980000028.jpg

http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa330/cvergi01/Image01061980000034.jpg

http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa330/cvergi01/Image06042011165242.jpg

http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa330/cvergi01/Image06042011165316.jpg

That's pretty much all the pics that I have.  I left sunday morning in a hurry.  Made it all the way from fortuna through the fun parts of 199 and only saw 4 cars...had the road to myself to try out my new found talents.  went from eureka to the end of the good stuff (56mi) in 1 hour.  That is an average of 60 mph through some intense twisties.  You guys changed my life  Inlove

ok, I gotta go back to work now Smile

Thanks for the pictures!   Made me think of my younger days when I still had some "adventure" in me.

btw-  Loved how your white luggage rain covers matched your bike   Lol

Just so you know I'm not laughing AT you, I'll re-post this picture of me when I first started "sport-touring" and had the adventure, before I got soft.
