OFFICIAL RIDE

Come join Assistant Director, Wayne Parker, for a ghostly weekend overnight trip to Forest Grove, Oregon. Check in at 8am at Destination Harley Davidson Saturday July 23rd with Kick Stands Up at 9 am and head down I-5. First stop is a gas stop in Castle Rock. From there we will ride to Longview and get off the interstate and head across the Columbia River, Head west on Hwy 30 and then start heading south on the wonderfully twisty Mist-Clatskanie Hwy #47. We will stop in Vernonia for lunch at the Black Iron Grill. We will continue south until we intersect Hwy 26, head east for a short distance before making a slight detour around Banks, OR and picking Hwy 47 back up and ending our day at The McMenamins Grand Lodge Hotel. Kick Stands Down at the Hotel for the evening. Please make a hotel reservation as soon as possible as this is a very popular hotel with multiple restaurants, bars, movie theater, day spa, heated soaking pool, or just hanging around the outdoor firepit with good friends.

Our return trip begins 9:30am as we leave the spooky confines of the Lodge and head west on Hwy 6 to Tillamook. Gas Stop there with a 20 min coffee break. From there we will head north on US 101 and make a quick stop in Seaside to stretch our legs. We then continue north and head across the Columbia River at Astoria and up to Long Beach for Lunch at The Lost Roo. After lunch we head up Hwy 101 to Montesano for our last gas stop. From there we head back to Destination Harley to finish the trip. We should arrive back at the shop around 5pm

For those of you who don’t know me, there are four things I don’t do. Heights, snakes, Brioche Buns, and ghosts but I’m willing to give this one a try! Get your reservation ASAP!
