Whats the date of your ride?? Soon as the snow melt off of 410, I head to over to that area on a regular basis, just keep the cops off of canyon road, cause it no fun at the speed limit, great ride, hook that up with old vantage hwy and a few other roads and you can get a nice 300 mile trip out of it.

 

[frisbee]

sounds like a great ride ! I'll keep tracking this topic . I should be able to make it!

 

[manatrader]

Sorry Havoc I should have read the first part better 25th to 27th, would like to hook up for a day, not sure I can get away for 3 days, specially since Laguna is just about the next week.

 

[frisbee]

Hey Mana, I can only do 1 day also. Lets figure something out.

dayuum, wish I could join y'all. It's kinda tough to get a Saturday off in my biz.

Lewiston is a great base camp for some stellar rides. I don't know what your schedule is, but here are some ideas;

The obvious; Lewiston to Missoula via Lolo pass. Roughly 215 mi's one way. Makes for a great day.

Another; Clarkston to Enterprise, Or. via Asotin, Anatone, down Rattlesnake to the Grand Ronde. Absolutely beautiful. A combination of tight twisties and long sweepers along with great scenery. 87 mi one way.

Another; On the way to Lolo, stay along the NF Clearwater @ Kooskia and continue on to Elk City. Once again, awesome ride, constant twisties from Kooskia on. Lots of small rest areas along the river. 135 mi one way.
