Default Best Invention Ever!
Rode out to Multnomah Falls yesterday. Place was packed, parking lot full.
Best invention ever: "Motorcycle Parking Only"

Nice pics. I love scenic pictures like those. Btw I think there should be a section of parking lot labeled "Bike Only Parking" in every store and business. Doesn't have to be many but 2 or 3 places should be enough.

I was just there last week. We went to Portland for a couple of days then down to Northern California (Redwoods) for a few days. Great vacation.

+ 1, I could not agree more, and it should be nation wide.

I hope you were here for the two nice days last week. Although the falls still look great even in the rain

I spent a lot of time around Troutdale in the late 80s-early 90s and I used to go out there quite a bit. A beautiful place but I don't think they had bike only parking then. Like others said, more places should have it.

Sure is, I used to ride out along one side of the river, cross over and come back on the other side.
