You'll be in the vicinity of the Cascade Loop - which is beautiful ride.

Central Oregon is a close second to Northern Cal. as far as paved roads. You will definitely NOT do wrong by staying within The Dalles [NW] , Redmond [SW] , John Day [S] , The Snake River and Hells Canyon [E] , and Troy [NE]. There's just too much. I've used John Day as a base before. Probably as good a base as any, although it's not really in the centre of things, the centre of the good stuff there's not really any towns with hotels and decent food. How much time do you have? Do you like to sample VERY good beer??? Steve
