Got out this weekend on new to me rig. Think it’s just about dialed in.

Nice. Tuna is such a beautiful road and a hard climb. I have stopped climbing it after some unpleasant incidents with descending cyclists and skateboarders (curious that the cars seemed OK with it). I do sometimes access the upper part of the climb via Big Rock and the dirt motorway. Two weeks ago while descending my buddy was almost hit by lunatics in a McLaren and a Lambo going way too fast for that road.

Yup. It's a beaut and a brute. And yup, need to be wary... I've seen all kinds of crazy as far as what comes down. Once saw a guy take a corner wrong on a motorcycle going down Latigo... He and his bike went over the railing and down into the canyon...

Nice picture Dan.

Do you live in the actual city of Portland?

How far do you need to go to get to beautiful looking stuff like this?

Nice pics slow poke Pete. They remind me of shots of model figures, like on a train set. Not sure how they look that way but pretty cool. Reminds me of the photos of my late grandfathers train sets.
