2007 SPAMS Ride - Day 3 - 8/18/2007
John's Day 3 ride report:
We started out after a breakfast at Summit Station and
had a great drive over the Lolo Pass made famous by Lewis and
Clark and the weeks it took them to cross them where it took us a hour. Over 70
miles of winding roads and sweepers along
the river heading west. We then got gas in Orofino but no milk shakes at a spot
Adams suggested which was sold. The road
from Orofino up the canyon and into the Palouse into Pullman is also great. Its
has tighter turns then Lolo Pass, narrow and
very scenic with different scenes like flat lands thru farmland then into a deep
shady canyon going down to Moscow with all
the pavement in great shape. Both of these roads gave us great experience and
chances to improve our turn knowledge and
I became one with the RT !. We talked about doing a trip back to Lewiston or
Pullman and using that as a base because of
all the great roads and passes in that area.
