    29th sounds good. There are lots of nice places to eat, I'm thinking Charburger in Cascade Locks, or if we go a bit further to Hood River there's always the brewery. I work on a route.

      I'm busy on the 29th, Sunday the 30th work for you? Charburger sounds delicious though.

                  Just made a loop of what is most likely the best drive oregon has to offer. 380 miles incorporating 5 drives suggested by the motorcycle site posted earlier.

                  You can drag the blue route line to add to it ;)

                    So August is a little more than half over and I have been driving a swapped car for over a month now I think. Are we going to get a drive planned or what? ▲▲▲ That drive looks like a lot of fun, we could just do that!

                        There could be a slow group and an awesome group? Maybe have a mini meet in fossil or something.

                          Try Cornelius Pass -AKA "The Slot Car Track" out HWY 30 to Reeder beach on Suavie Island. Without traffic, the pass is fast & tight...

                            Isn't Cornelius a major road? and less than 1/4 mile south of it on 30 is McNamee rd which from google earth, looks awesome.

                              Scappose-Vernonia Highway in either direction, for all of the PDX'ers who view this, it is a must drive! Be careful through Vernonia as the cops out there don't have much to do and the speed limits are low.

                              ps, The pass is also very dangerous I've seen alot of accidents, roll overs, and other issues over the years on that road, fun but dangerous be careful. To get to McNamee you have to turn off the pass onto Skyline road East Bound continue for about a mile or so and you will see it on your left.

                                non pnw related, but hwy 1 going through the california coast off hwy 101 is just fucken amazing more hairpins and 10mph turns than you could imagine, and big elevation changes. South of hwy 1 is hwy 128 going through wine country its faster and more flow than hwy 1, but there is plenty of really nice S curves and hair pins thrown into the mix as well. Some of the best roads i've ever driven.
