		<description><![CDATA[Way over in the eastern end of Oregon, is one of the most challenging sections of rural highway Oregon has to offer. Called Dooley Mountain Highway, it&#8217;s an amazing piece of road that leaves almost no time at all to enjoy, let alone ponder, the fantastic scenery from 4000&#8242; or so feet up. Abandoned Barn [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This road is one of those little country roads that ends up being curvy by virtue of the fact that it has to go in between existing farms, and it&#8217;s conveniently situated to go over to the town in the next valley. It&#8217;s a tableau full of sweepers, executed in chipseal with excess-gravel shoulder, but [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I did this road in July 2008. While not exactly a stellar summer by even Puget Sounds standards, Northern Idaho seems to have been blessed with much nicer weather. No trace of rain to speak of while I was there, even though Seattle was getting a mid-July drenching. Halfway through this ride, I dubbed it [...]]]></description>

For another, there&#8217;s quarter-mile long two-tower suspension bridge out in the middle of nowhere that goes over the Dworshak Reservoir.

This dam and the eponymous nearby community sits in a little spot along the river that looks like the river channel used to flow though there.

On the cool September that marked the day ride portion of &#8216;Pass the Oyster&#8217; 2004, the road was dry and nearly deserted. The auturn leaves lined the trees and the [...]]]></description>

St. Helens and provides a way to get to FS99 and Windy Ridge. Where FS25 is a twisty, curvy work of art done in asphalt, FS23 is another matter. FS23 splits [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Nestucca Valley Road is a sparsely-traveled road that croses the Coastal Range between Carlton and Beaver in Northwestern Oregon. The road is very technical with gravel in many of the corners and no discernable rhythm. It felt far more difficult than FR99 coming down from Helens. NOT a road for beginners or recently-returning riders. [...]]]></description>
