101 to Depoe Bay from Newport

Just a heads up for everyone. The spot on 101 that slips every year, just after the OSP Office is bad and after Beverly Beach not so bad. You can almost catch air going North past the OSP. So just be careful and be sure everything is in an upright position. ODOT will be repairing it sometime in the near future, again.

I *LOVE* that spot on the road!! 'Specially when I'm towing
7 tons of boat!!

Hit it at about 12-14 MPH a couple
weeks back when I was towing the boat from Newport to Dopey
Bay. Wahoo! Hang on!

I *always* slow down there ... even if ODOT has just repaired
it.

Thanks for the heads up!!!

Yeah, there are smaller jumps than that at the Baha 1000!

I hit that baby about a week ago when I wasn't paying attention and I'm pretty sure every object in both the truck and boat became airborne!

Well, ODOT was out fixing the road the last few days. Amazing what they can do when they want to work on their tans. Went to Lincoln City and did not catch any air. It is better now but not great, do heed the rough road signs.

Thanks ... that's the same one that got 2 of my boat trailer tires in the same 24 hour period last summer.

Boom! flup, flup, flup!!!

Remember that Fishplay? What fun.
