HRH Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHqUipinDyw Okay, here's the official Inland NW rolling thread. So far it's just me heading down from Spokane. Bill (wildmaninid) may or may not be coming, but probably late on Saturday if he does. I don't think there is anyone else rolling from Spokane, would be rather nice if there were, oh well! It's 368 miles from Spokane to Canby. Jayden, do you have an address for that A&W we met at last year? I think it was slight back tracking along the I84 after the I82 leg? Anyway, we're meeting there as far as I know, what time did you guys want to meet there so I can figure out what time I need to leave? I think we left around 9 from here last year, got to the A&W around 12:00, 12:30? That sound right? So who's on the list for rolling with Jayden? Wide possibly? Chester? Quote Link to comment
Farmer Joe Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 I'm going... if wide doesn't come, I'm gonna roll up there anyways... I'm meeting jayden in baker, and caravanning with him the rest of the way... don't know about chet.. Quote Link to comment
Jayden71 Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 Yeah Matt, you are correct. Get on 84 east and hop off at exit #182. Its the Spaceage truckstop, only a 3 mile backtrack. I would like to leave Baker at 8am Pacific time. That would get us to Hermiston around 1030 - 1100 if all goes well. I think this year when we get to the Gorge we should hop off and drive the Histiric Columbia River Highway!! We can stop at Multnomah Falls and then go up to Crown Point above the river for great Datto photo opps!!! :thumbup: . Then it drops down into Troutdale. What you guys think?? Quote Link to comment

I'm all up for that, I remember seeing Multnomah falls from the road we were on last year. Looked crowded, but I still wouldn't mind seeing it. Don't think I've been there before, unless during sometime in my youth I probably forgot. I see it's almost to Portland, looks like it snakes around quite a bit. I'm totally all for it provided we don't have any clutch issues. Heheh. ;) I'd definitely like it because the river is not all that pretty. The historic route goes through a whole bunch of state parks. Keep in mind, we will run into added traffic, but if we leave a little earlier we shouldn't have a problem. Plus we go pretty slowly in our caravans anyway. Better mileage, no reason to hurry unless you want to see if the truck can get to 100. :) Quote Link to comment

Shit matt if you wouldn't mind I would like a hand with my carb too I am new to the jetting part. I have two days on my truck and no issues. Hasn't lost any oil and it doesnt leak. lets do this!!! Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted June 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 Sweeet! I'll bring a jet kit. I'm hoping I just fixed the last stupid oil leak on the truck. Damn timing cover bolt. Ended up removing, filling with rtv, then putting a bolt cap in it. Looks like it's attached, makes a plug hopefully. Don't think the timing cover is going to move much. But we'll test it here in a bit. Quote Link to comment
