=====================

Jon,

Outstanding pictures. Sounds like a great way to spend the weekend.

I've ridden The Talimena Highway several times. See something new every time I ride it. Stayed a Queen Willamena State Park Lodge. Great view from the hilltop and a good little restaurant. I believe Trip has camped there a few times as well

Thanks for sharing.

Sounds like you had a great time. Have to wait till I get home to see the pictures. Work bans photobucket.

Looks like you guys had a fantastic trip, jon. I love riding up in that area. Spent many a night camping at Queen Wilhelmena. Many times, I make it a day ride.....leave my home at about 7:30am, ride to Queen Willy, eat lunch, ride highway 1, then head back home. Usually arrive about 6PM.

We need to do that someday.

After I saw them on your bike I ordered them as a Valentine's present to myself.

I hate to say it, but the Nomad sticks out in a crowd of Hondas.

That's awesome! In 1999 five of us started a motorcycle fellowship at our church. We ride the 1st Saturday of every month. But my favorite ride is the men's 4 day camping trip we take in August.
