    It would be no problem for you to fuel up at Wamic, head to Dufur and ride 44 back.
    Barlow Rd is only about 43+ miles to Wamic.
    You will EASILY make it in time,
    ....if you can put up with a bit of Hwy197, and then some empty forest slab for your route back.

    I can meet you on the way up 35 :deal
    Maybe at the old Mt Hood Store @ 9:00?

    I feel so left out. :(:

    I will be getting up early tomorrow morning to work on the bike. We'll see. Susi and I, however, will probably explore around McCubbins and Rock Creek (north and south of Barlow).

    Good luck with the bike Mat. I can loan you a big hammer if you need it. Maybe a splitting mall from Jeff will work.
