    Name That Place Game

    Pants, I didn't dig deep enough into the ride reports to see if anybody stopped at this site, but I see lots of comments that they love this road. I don't know if you were one of the culprits. There's a good chance no one stopped for scenery on such a fine section of sweepers. The town and road...

    And I'll go ahead and throw another big hint if the above doesn't help enough. There is (or was at least before COVID) an annual FJR event that is usually held to the Southeast of this area, but is occasionally held NE of it. When held in the latter, the road right by this place is always...

    Most of the roads in the area look like this, but there is little traffic and they are fun to ride: There's an odd little $4 ferry about 30 miles to the north. It crosses a river popular throughout neighboring states for its canoeing and rafting in the currents. Over 25 years ago my wife and...

    Let's see if anyone has been to this peaceful stop in an area of great sweepers you should not miss:

    From the hint, I think you leading us to Oklahoma which limits the possibilities. I think the range that the Talihina is on is not as isolated, but the ones on the west side aren't usually as green as your photo. Maybe Kiamichi Mtns just south of the Talihina?

    You are correct, Pants! We actually didn’t know we went by Cadillac ranch at the time. We were trying to make Tucumcari NM on our big Southwest trip and not do any sight seeing or good roads until then. We just happened to spend the night in Shamrock and TripAdvisor alerted us to the U-drop-Inn...

    This one's a little different but still is associated with an iconic road and a movie about the road:

    Valve Check Problem!

    You've certainly got my sympathy that you are having trouble with this, Ross. I'm following the thread to learn.

    Tom, I have not been there but have been close. But I will guess from the clues that it is Cascades Water Fall. I picked up my Goldwing in Pittsburgh as a fly and ride. It started snowing so I was riding smooth and easy as directly south as I could that morning. So no exploring that trip.

    Correct!! Got to thinking about Nebraska from the last post and I think this is one of only two pictures I have in the state. I didn’t stop but there is supposed to be an odd display there you can visit. For the first three years after they built it there wasn’t an exit there so I have heard. ...

    Speaking of odd places, here's the next place: I am going to go ahead and say this one should be easy, but it seems every time I say that no one gets it.

    Name That Place Game

    I went through Douglas on our Colorado / Wyoming trip a couple years ago as we returned from the Wyoming loop. It was a brief stop. My memory of my first trip to Wyoming still sticks with me though. I love riding in Wyoming. It was my first time west of Colorado except for flying over all those...

    Name That Place Game

    So just to clarify, that is the same place as the Columbia River Gorge, right? I had typed in Columbia River in Google yesterday just because I was curious after FJRay guessed that. The picture that came up for Columbia River Gorge looked just like your first pic. Now the horseshoe road in the...
