Listen to today's hearing on HB 1003 to allow ORV use on nonhighway public roadways. You can listen to the hearing from the Windows Media Link. HB 1003 is the first issue and the hearing lasts about 23 minutes. The recording goes longer, but unless you want to learn more about salmon habitat, you can cut it off after 23 minutes. The Recording cuts in and out for the first few minutes when the staff is providing a general overview (the guy was not speaking into his microphone!). Don't worry, stick with it and you'll get the substance. You will have to cut and paste the link, I could not get it work on the forum.

hey i live in ridgefield, wa(10 miles from vancouver). do you guys know of anywhere to ride, secret spots maybe? dont want to go to far, thanks

 

Depends on what type of riding ya do. Currently, our closest ORV park (Jones Creek) in east Vancouver, is closed for the season. There are some choice local tracks. The closest one to you is in Woodland, driving towards Cougar. Then there is Washougal or Longview.

Occasionally we get together and drive to Goldendale to ride Eddieville or Starvation Ridge. You can see their website at overthebarsgang.com. Mostly, the folk on this forum post head southeast for the Oregon Dunes. We are going the last week of February, youre welcome to join us!

Good luck.

Hey Bear, A motel would be a lot cheaper than renting a motorhome. Might be a little easier on my daughter too. Let me know which one you decide on.

 

Bear, how was Sandlake on Sunday?
