Today's ride

[markem]

It's a nice day, so taking out the motorcycle.

Here is my route. It's a loop. The west-most part of the loop is the outbound and the other is the inbound. The start/stop are a major intersection not too far from me.

Should be close to zero traffic. The roads in the area have been really clean. No rain today, so dry pavement as well.

Great to see a fellow Oregonian! I am in the east side of the State (near Hermiston area).

Cool. One of my fave summer rides is to Heppner for lunch via backroads.

The ride was nice. Didn't know that some of the roads were loose dirt and gravel, but what the heck, it's a dual sport bike. The outbound route had too much gravel in the corners of the paved sections to be a lot of fun. The inbound side is one that I do all the time - good pavement and clean corners.
