Dave`s Oct 7th Drive




Meeting up at the Newburg Fred Myer`s @ 1130, we will be leaving @ 1200-1215.


the drive will be a very twisty route, so we will not be driving insane crazy! we do not want to get to spaced out, there are a few forks in the road that everybody needs to take the right path, lol....

make shure you have a full tank of gas, there are no gas stations out where we will be.

be very very wary of washington and yamhill county sherrif through gaston, yamhill, and carlton. This is 1/2 of my delivery route every day, and just cause it's a little backwater, doesn't mean they ignore the area. I see them plenty

edit: also, instead of heading straight up 47 from yamhill to Gaston, go east on 240 about 2 miles, then north on Laughlin Rd to Laurelwood Rd (which is where you cut over to Bald Peak from Gaston). Newly paved, less traffic, and much more twisty than 47

'nother edit: be warned, at least 2 miles of this is gravel, on Upper Nestucca Rd (or Nestucca Access Rd, whichever you prefer) Just drove over that last weekend.

I was just warning cause it seems to me quite a few evo owners are very protective of their paint
