Cheney Spangle Rd to S Wells Road to Pine City / Malden Rd to St. John., then onto 23 and over through Steptoe to 195 South.  195 South to 95 South, right onto the Old Spiral Highway, down to 128 West all along the Wawawai River Road, back up to 195, North on 195 to Colfax, West on 26 until the Endicott road, Endicott E road to Endicott / St. John Rd, North on the Endicott / St. John road, back up through Pine City / Malden, back through South Wells and then to Cheney.  Saw 2 big bucks dead on the road...most likely from a wheat truck.  I was off the road by 5pm and didn't see a single deer (thankfully) all day.  Full day of riding, tons of room to stretch out and let it rip.
