  • The Stanley Stomp 2010 was the destination. To ride some back roads in Idaho and Oregon was the goal. Hence the choice of rides. F650GS for Tom and R100GS for Adrian.
  • My ST1300 stays at home this time as I'm riding my KLR 650 that Kathi has nicknamed the "Toad".
  • The first day was all asphalt to Sandpoint, Idaho. 413 km of mostly secondary roads through Washington.
  • Tom crossing the Columbia River at Kettle Falls.
  • Kettle Falls was also our first fuel stop. Wayne & Adrian.
  • Once settled into our hotel in Kettle Falls it was off to the Hydra Steakhouse for dinner.
  • The first of many good meals. You need to keep your energy up for this kind of riding.
  • Our GPS track for Sunday.
  • Our GPS stats for Sunday.

  • Being relatively new to dual sport riding, this is our first real exposure to unpaved mountain roads on fully loaded bikes. Lots of fun.
  • This was the first of many places where the pre-planned routes on the GPS made it easy. At Buckskin Saddle the road split up in several directions. The choice was easy as the purple line on the GPS pointed us in the right direction.
  • Once up at a high elevation, Dry Creek Rd winds along the ridges. The scenery was great and the sky was hazy. Smoke?
  • Adrian showing off his standing technique. He looked real comfortable on the R100GS.
  • We stopped for a photo op at one of the crossing of Buckskin Creek.
  • Buckskin Creek looked like nice place to drop in a fishing line.
  • Wayne getting comfortable on the KLR on Independence Creek Road. I'll need to adjust the handlebars a bit to make standing easier.

  • Another photo stop on Independence Creek Road.
  • Wayne and Adrian striking a "heroic" posture.
