Motorcycling Through Western Oregon
Western Oregon—with its well maintained paved roads and hospitable friendliness—provides the touring rider euro-like travelling experiences as you pass through small towns, across fertile farmlands and along historical mazes of pavement fit for kings and queens.
Moto journalist Tom Mehren has spent several decades riding the lesser known roads of the Northwest United States. For this collection, he reveals twenty-five paved rides that provide the opportunity to capture the sights of Western Oregon, while enjoying its many twists and turns by linking together stunning sets of roads. Mehren goes on to reveal historical facts and insights about the roads, places and state infrastructure.
Each ride includes a pre-ride descriptive, turn by turn directions and an easy to follow map. The spiral bind makes it easy to slip into a tank bag window. Use the see and do, lodging and restaurant directories to create a simple single day ride, or design a multi-day grand touring experience.
This book takes riders beyond the monotony of I-5 and the RV traffic of US 101, instead breaking away to the roads less travelled. Discover the tucked away sweepers, the roller coaster-like whoops and superb banked corners that take you to places like Silver Falls, the Astoria Column, through covered bridges, across the King’s Valley and into the secluded scrublands of the Rogue River Valley.
