15 years ago wife and I did a day trip from Olympia to Mt hood to tillimuck and back to Olympia with some detours (in a sporty car)

We ran across a road with a giant "no trailers! Use alternative routes" sign with blinking lights. And it wasn't for show! Long, tight, winding road up/down a pretty good grade. (We also found other amazing roads with gravel in the middles)

Ive hunted around on google maps and haven't found it yet... Saddly i have no route or trip data, either lack of cell coverage back then, or maybe data got lost over the years....

Either way, any help greatly appreciated!

Not looking to break rules by selling here but where besides FB Marketplace or craigslist would be a good place to sell a brand new Helite airbag backpack? I broke my lower leg so I’m out for the season and I’d like to not see this hanging but being used.

hi folks, looking to retire from riding and offload my bike but I picked up a bad flat in my last riding season. been trying to locate a mobile tire service but haven't had any luck. I'm not in a huge rush so flexible on scheduling.

Any recommendations?

BLM Oregon and Washington is reporting on Facebook that the entire loop of the Steens Mountain is OPEN.

This nearly 60-mile scenic route is the highest-elevation drivable road in Oregon and often called one of the most spectacular drives in the state. It began in 1930 with a CCC-built stretch to Fish Lake, was completed in 1962, and designated a National Back Country Byway in 1989. Today, it offers access to four developed campgrounds, five scenic overlooks, numerous hiking trails, pristine Wildhorse Lake, and more.

I haven't ridden it in a few years - but when I did it (on my KLR), it was quite a treat.
