Dave is a bit busy right now, so I'm going to take the torch and see if there is interest in a repeat of last year's run.

The date can be a bit tricky... October 10th would be the "same" day as last year, which worked out good with the weather, but the leaves were not really turning yet. The catch is, the later we wait, the less likely we are to have nice weather. So... I'm open for suggestions as to the date.

My 914 is still in pieces, so I won't have mine there... I'll either drive my truck as a support vehicle, or bum a ride in a teener.

10th is out for me. I can do the 3rd or the 17th. I'm up for it but am not sure I'll have a 914 to drive either. Should be able too though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I can't guarantee either, but the 17th sounds better to me.

I don't know if this sounds like a good gorge destination, but I stopped by here a couple weeks ago on my motorcycle :
http://www.route30classics.com/

Neat little place, half way between The Dalles & Hood River, with Ice cream and espresso and lots of Porsche paraphernalia. I think he advertises here or something. I found his web site from 914World some how. Nice guy... beautiful 914 & wicked cool 356 owner.

Good to see you back Coy. Hope all is well. Be cool if you can make it with the wife again. I think I'll bring my wife along this time myself (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Okay the last post I saw said your wife wanted to keep one of your many many 914s. Maybe she'll bring you... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

I'll try to make this, for sure!

Sounds interesting... it would add about 50 miles to the trip that we made last year.

Opinions?

Last year, Jakeodoule pointed out a dive that he claims has the best chicken ever... maybe that would be a good lunch stop.

Great timing -- I just put in a new fuel pump (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Any Saturday works, but the 10th would be best.

I second the drive to route 30 classics -- escpecially since we shouldn't have any trouble passing any vanagons on we meet on the way (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

I'm feeling inspired to get my v8 914 ready for this drive! I'm hoping the 17th will be the day though. These get togethers just get me pumped to have more (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif)

Seems like there is a bit more interest for the 17th, and seems like there is interest in the drive to Mosier to visit Route 20 Classics. Jakodoule and I are going to get together to plan a route. Nothing is firm yet, so if you have something to say... say it now!

Sounds like fun!! My schedule is pretty fluid so whenever is good, I'll try and be there.

NORD, Steve and other north enders: when the day comes, we should all drive down as a group.
