  1. Hi grizfan, Thank you for your donation of 25.00 USD. We look forward to improving the forums with your donation. Thanks VFRDiscussion
  2. I just sent my rough route to Darren and Rob this morning. We will see what they say.
  3. That would work for me. I was planning on going thru Orofino and heading up the Lochsa with my destination being Missoula that day. I was going to throw in some side routes in the Orofino/Kamiah area too. Old Idaho 7, Greer Grade and Kamiah-Nezperce Grade. They are just 5-10 mile up-and-backs. Feel free to pm me with your route and we can work it out. I have something roughed out with stops being Missoula and Red Lodge/Billings, but I am not set in stone after Missoula.
  4. Yup. La Grande, Oregon. You are correct, the trip down I-84 isn't very long. I have a preferred route through Oregon that zig zags thru the state that hits some amazing roads and it is about a 440 mile day. Key towns are Shaniko, Fossil, Spray, Ruggs, Heppner and Ukiah. In fact, that is the trip I was on last year when I ran into your group in Fossil last summer. Americas Best Hotel in La Grande has always been more than generous with leaving vehicles in their lot for a week at a time. PM me and I can give you more details of my route. Might be meeting up with some other VFRDs in Western Montana. (No details yet).
  5. That would be me It was cool to see the herd of VFR's stream into Fossil last year. So this year I will be participating in the V4 orchestra with the Aprilia. I haven't decided if I will be riding from Portland or trailering to LaGrande and riding from there. I knock off almost 900 miles if I trailer to LaGrande. The big Ape has a habit of eating rear tires and the latter option may save my bacon on this long of a trip. The roads to LaGrande are great but I plan on covering those roads on a 3 day trip to LaGrande/Lewiston/Hell's Canyon/Baker City before the Sum Sum. I'm coming up with around 3600 miles round trip not including 2 days riding in the SD area.
  6. Booked! I've been a member since 05' but this will be my 1st VFRD ride. I met some great VFRD folks as their ride took them thru Portland last year. Looking forward to it!

    Kooskia

    I'll never forget Kooskia, Id.........My ground decided to give up after stopping for a coke (day 3 of a 6 day Idaho trip). I was prepared, I had 2 mechanics riding with me, the how to fix the bad ground printed from VFRD, and a new ground wire to get the bike running........all while trying to outrun a storm that was approaching from the south. Oh the stories we have from taking road trips!!

    Hondas

    My workbike and funbike.......which one is which?
  11. Can they be made street legal in the U.S? I saw a few when I was in British Columbia last summer. The impression I got from one of the owners I spoke with was that they weren't overly expensive. By the way...........Great looking bike!
