Need to get those little knobby rubber pins off of the sides of your motorcycle tires? The turns on this short ride will begin to wear them down. On this motorcycle loop from Portland, Oregon ride through Longview (Washington), Clatskanie, Mist, and Vernonia, with more twists than a Stephen king novel.
Starting in Portland, ride I-5 North and cross over the Columbia River at Longview. US-30 West towards Astoria climbs steeply up the bluffs of the Columbia and into the forests of Oregon. Turn south on Highway 47 at Clatskanie and enjoy some of those turns...A good report on this stretch of the loop can be found at the Oregon Motorcyclist website. Finish off the ride by taking Cornelius Pass Road back towards Portland, but expect lots of traffic on sunny weekend days.
