[QUOTE="PhatAir4Me, post: 1450804, member: 88432"] Sorry posted this thread and have been working non stop on a rental to try and get it rented before we head out for a month on Monday! OK so, I am getting the feeling there is no real affinity to La Pine, we are all old and cheap and might prefer a smaller venue to save 20 bucks a night on a room but we would like to continue with some sort of event yet to be determined. My opinion is if we are here to fraternize and would like to continue the tradition of the Friday Night Social then sure it might be 20.00 more a room but I can work on finding both a reasonable from an economic standpoint and viable from a bike parking gathering standpoint place in Bend. Prineville is cheaper but in the long run we are still in Prinetucky and have only gained a half hour if the goal is getting to the good stuff, If the good stuff is truly the goal than we should move this thing to Baker City which is the epicenter of awesome riding JSNS. I will say I found this place ---> [URL]https://www.facebook.com/oregontrailmotelandrestaurant/[/URL] in Baker City and if ever there was a place that looked like it could facilitate a new tradition this is it. I have yet to contact them but from the looks of things they have the rooms, the restaurant, the prime rib and the pie. Some pics ---> [URL]https://tinyurl.com/4ebe65s9[/URL] I will say this, when I first came to this thing in 15 or 16 (they say memory is the 2nd thing to go) Mel and I would end the weekend by bidding everyone adieu on Sunday am and then going out and melting the tires on the bike with a ripping ride. We were like wow what a bunch of old fuks all they want to do is talk and ride to Crater Lake, no offense. Now I am late to mature for sure and I still like to boil the tires but as this RR has evolved with us we have become more enfranchised with the camaraderie and less concerned with the riding because lets face it we live here and the best off the hook rides are done solo (dang it selfish me again). Not to say we don't get some epic riding in cause we do fo sho, riding the box on Sunday with good friends this last event was epic!
