    Just remember, when the going gets rough, you can find me at the truck stop waiting for the going to get easy. :yes2557:

    On 5 the Ashland grade in Oregon on the north side is long and steep. It seems like you never get to the top, or bottom :) Its not my favorite when it's snowy and icy.

    Buck horn on CA 299 is pretty bad, the on that will get you in trouble though is Oregon mountain on 299. It's 8% and the turns will sneak up on you fast.
