We'll meet at the Barnes & Noble parking lot in Bend and head out through Alfalfa to Bowman Dam and that nice ribbon of curvy highway along the Crooked River Gorge. Arriving in Prineville, we'll avoid the main drag and scoot over to Hwy 380, AKA the Post-Paulina Hwy. Swooping through the curves as we dive down past Eagle Rock, we'll rejoin the Crooked River, heading east to Post, Oregon for our lunch break. If you want to ride your own route, you can join us in Post about noonish. There are GS route options that some of you might want to consider.

If you haven't stopped in at the General Store in Post, be advised that they serve delicious meatloaf sandwiches and really good potato salad and macaroni salad. The menu does include a few other options as well.

After lunch, we'll head back along the Crooked River to Prineville and on to Powell Butte. Chuck & Patrizia Mileur have graciously invited us to stop by their place in Powell Butte for sodas & snacks after our ride. I'm looking forward to seeing what they've done around their new home.

Plan to arrive at the Barnes & Noble parking lot in Bend early enough for cheerful greetings, tire kicking, and a pre-ride briefing. Kickstands up and clutches out at 10:30 AM.
