Racing through Central Oregon

How I like central Oregon? Actually, I don't know, it just flew by so quickly, since we were late for a lunch date in Bend. But I was given a few seconds here and there taking pictures of... the big empty:

Wild West in Shaniko

Twist and shout

We were to meet a certain pink croc wearing blogger from Key West, his wife and the dog, and made it almost in time. Soon Mr Conch and Mr Bobskoot bonded in a shoe store over a pair crocs for the missus. 

Crocmaniacs

Later we visited the first International (Canadian-US) moto blogger convention (copyright: bolty.net) held at the air-conditioned facilities of Irondad's hotel suite. But this is another story better be told by one of the fellow attendants, like Bolty for example. (I believe I already mentioned that I am not good with taking pictures from people.).

Thanks to all who made this event happen! It was great to meet you guys and gals!
