Oregon State Route 82 (Enterprise – Imbler)Route 82 is one of the roads coming out of the Enterprise/Joseph area. The roads begins as a somewhat dull, bucolic highway rolling through a river valley in between some pretty sizeable hills. Mostly dead-straight sections punctuated by the occasional gentle curve, it will should be a stress to nobody’s riding skills. But once you’re west of Wallowa, the road dives into the wall of hills and you’re quite suddenly into very mountainous country running along the Wallowa River.
I got some serious lean on my rear tire in this stretch and I was able to completely round off the squaring that had been caused by the dead-dull drone down the straight section of Oregon Route 3 coming down from Bogan’s Oasis into Enterprise.
