Richard, that day three boarder crossing is a limited hour type of crossing, so beware.Just trying to get an idea of who is heading to NAFO and which route you are going to be taking.

On your day two route from Baker City route yourself thru Sumpter and Ukiah great stuff. When I went to the first NAFO with escapefjrtist and MCRider007 they took me thru there, a great ride.
Remember half the fun is getting there, and the other half is getting back!

Just trying to get an idea of who is heading to NAFO and which route you are going to be taking.
May see you along the way, Richard... here is a first round, very rough draft of my plan for the trip up:
Day 1 - Redding
Day 2 - Bend (Klamath Falls / Crater Lake visit)
Day 3 - Spokane
Day 4 - into Castlegar
I may add a day or two in there to sightsee a bit, etc. and am always open to adjustments for better roads.

Tuesday night in Jasper, AB. Wednesday night in Revelstoke, BC. Three days in Castlegar. Followed by three days molesting WA mountain passes on the way south, one day down the OR coast, and then home from northwest Cali.

So, kinda PUI, BWTFO...
In best scenario, I have $$ to make this happen..
Truck, camper, trailer to LP, OreyGone to a certain fellows la casa with el Grande shop.
Drop off one KZ1300, park the rig, then head north on??
Oh jeesh - now it gets strange. Is KrZy8 down and out for the count? If so, then heading to Cgar financially not so good. Ride the Harley? Wabs? Drop the trailer and just truck/camper up to Cgar? Should know more about KrZy8 next weekend.
Jeesh, and in the other thread I gave King Richard crap about driving his Audi to the East coast..

Is it really crashing if you don't fall down?--
I wouldn't change a fucking thing; I've lived hard, played hard, and I ain't done yet. I've paid some severe penalties along the way, but the rewards have been so much greater; even if for just have participating in the game of life with utmost abandon. It's not who rides the furthest in a day, but rather in a lifetime. CBA member #1, IBA #31845 and very proud of both.
