Fresh fish run to the Oregon Coast

Today was a good reminder of why I love living in Oregon. It's late November, but a Sunday morning craving for fresh fish is still a good reason for a ride.

I can always count on a fresh catch in Newport.

Slumgullion for lunch.

Fresh Dungeness... Sadly, my wife doesn't like crab so I settled for some Steelhead.

The Bay Haven Inn is a classic Oregon coast dive bar. Perhaps some other day...

Back home we seasoned up the Steelhead filet and put it on the smoker. Sorry there are no "after" photos; it was too delicious and disappeared quickly.

Yo Keith, I was thinking that just for a change, we might consider moving next years "Last day of the year ride" to one of the other wonderful Oregon coastal towns. I love Oceanside, but not to the exclusion of so many others. 

Just a thought. 

I do hope some more of you hardy NW riders will join us. This was the third year of this "Event", and something I have come to look forward to.

About 150 miles round-trip, nothing huge. In retrospect I posted this in the wrong forum; it really should have been in Day Trips.

I'm planning a NW forum members ride in Eastern Oregon this summer. Will meet up in Baker and ride some glorious twisties. I'll post the dates as a calendar event in Member map when I have the details.

Huck, good point. I far prefer Newport, and there are plenty of great places there for a group meet-up. I chose Oceanside because I thought it was more convenient to Portland. But hey, I'm definitely not opposed to another place.

OK, Let's plan for Newport, Convenience is not the point. A great ride, great location, great friends, and even a good meal... 

Thanks for starting this tradition. I hope others will join us next time.
