Let's have this section devoted to Rides that individual OregonXers would like to see the group do. I'll keep adding to this post so that as ride get togethers approach, we'll have a list of rides to consider. PM me with a ride you'd like ta share as well as the details(Starting pount, approx lenghth ect)
The Klicitat run
Mike Weber highley recomends this run. This would be a "Meet in Portland" ride, turn east onto I-84 to the Dalles where we stop for breakfast,brunch,lunch or whatever at Cousins Restuarant. Then cross over to Washington and cut back west on Hwy-14 to the Klickitat river where the road follows the river for miles before climbing high onto the plains where it again drops back into a canyon that is full of outrageous riding roads and senery. This will take us near Mt. Adams and back to White Salmon and Hwy-14 west again to Vancouver,Wa. and home.... About 250 miles, make this an all day ride as there are so many places you will want to stop along the way an take pic's,kick rocks, etc.
The Eugene Loop
Big Bob suggests this loop that starts and ends in Eugene. It's a 188mi twist run that goes from Eugene to Reedsport and back to Eugene
