I had to look in BaseCamp to find it but yes I have been on Valley Chapel Road. I included it in my second Spokane ride. :D

Thanks for the tip. Any other suggestions?

Obviously retirement is treating you well as you seem to have more time to ride than I do!

White Pine route. Take 3 out of St. Maries, then onto 6 to Potlatch and through to Palouse (the town) then back up 27 to Spokane. About 200 miles with all types of scenery and road surface. Some twisties, some 100 mph sweepers, and the rolling hills of the Palouse.
Do I really need to put something here?? Why don't you guys just think of something witty instead...........

Yep I road the White Pine route. Did it counter clockwise and just for kicks went up the St. Joe River road until the pavement ended. It was a great ride. Did it about 2 months ago before the tourist invaded Avery. The gravel road to St. Regis was still closed. Nice day.

Got anymore tips?

Thanks!

Was on Springdale to Hunters road a couple of times this year and down to Davenport and Reardon. Don't think if I was along Loon Lake to Springdale. I live south of I-90 just off Hwy 195 and try to avoid the traffic north of the river.
