Title: Mendo Dave moving to North West Update
Post by: MendoDave on March 08, 2010, 05:10:13 PM
Klamath Falls actually. So I don't expect to be riding around Portland all that much, but I guess I will chime in more often in NW. I do expect to come to the Willamette Valley river area from time to time and try out some beer, visit my aunt, take the wife out (she's from S.F.) and stuff like that. Maybe I'll see some of you around.

Klamath falls... why? Anything fun to do there if we wanted to ride out that way?

No. We have had this place for a few years.

Probably not, there are a few OK Places to drink beer. The roads are flat and straight too. Compared to the coast roads I enjoy right now I'm probably going to find a hard time getting enthused about anything else. On the other hand It's expensive to live down here and the economy really sucks unless you grow pot. (I don't grow pot anymore, been on the up and up for several years now) Whereas Klamath Falls is cheap, the place is paid for, and I think there is some work. So I'm moving up there. I might go skiing more often. Bend is close, Ashland is closer and Shasta..well I can see Shasta from town, and the Elk hunting is closer. I can also have Highspeed internet at my house instead of going into town with the laptop.

I found a cool road between Keno and Ashland and except for the lava rock all over the road this time of year, looks to be pretty awesome. When I get the bike up here, I plan on taking it.
