Hi,
I ran across your site when googling “Oregon highways”. Very nice pics. You’ve got some great rides in Oregon. I love that state.
Have you ever been up to Canada? There are some great rides in Southern British Columbia. I’d recommend the ride up BC #97 to Vernon, across the Monashee mountains on #6, sopping at Nelson then across to Revelstoke, down the 97C to 97 to Kelowna, then down #33 to the #3 then back to the #97 border crossing. You cover a variety of country with lots of wine tasting, beaches, interesting towns and people, and generally there isn’t much rain in the Summer.
Have a good one,
James Love

Just found you.
This appears to be a valuable resource for me.
Wondering how it is supported?
May I make a contribution?
Is so, how?

Great site. Went to central Oregon specifically because of the road descriptions found here. Enjoyed some of the best riding I’ve had. The no traffic/no cars with blue and red lights was just unreal. And the scenery from Cathedral Rock to the vastness of the high plains made the riding even better.
The hardest thing to do was deciding whether to stop and take pictures or keep the throttle twisted.

Hello all you bikers out there.
I need info on whether these two roads in NE Washington are paved. They are Cache Creek Road from around Nespelem on 155 to 21; and Northport-Flat Creek Rd from 395 to Northport, my map shows a small amount of non-pavement.
Any help will be much appreciated.

I haven’t finished my write-up for Cache Creek, but it is paved. I don’t know about Northport-Flat Creek though, as I turned around due to rather close lightning strikes when I went up that way.
