Riding Partners in So Oregon?

What a great website - a wealth of information and resources. Thanks to those of you who created it, and to those of you who contribute your knowledge and experience.

I'm a 47-year-old dual sport rider living in the Medford, OR, area and I just bought a street-legal XR600. I have begun to explore some of the countless logging roads in So Oregon and would like to connect with other dual sport riders to share in the adventure and add a higher level of safety.

If you live nearby and would like to find some new rides or share your favorites, please let me know.

Thanks,

I'm interested to know what/where OBDR is.

Ok, you've got my attention. Is this an established route, like the OR Trail? or a route you determined yourself? What is the route? so I can look at it on a map. It must be up and back to make 900 miles. Are you going to take a WR400? Sounds like a ride for a BMW GS. What's a GPS and how much horsepower does it add/consume? Actually, I was thinking of getting a GPS, but I've never used one and have no idea what features I'd need vs want. What do you suggest?

Feel free to e-mail me to save DRN users from witnessing my ignorance.
