Welcome to OB, Bend has some great places to wheel and overland. I'm in Boise, ID - so we most likely will cross paths!
 
Nice I just moved from boise to Bend, I loved it there.

Why on earth, did you trade Boise, for Bend? Curious... We really looked at Bend in 1990, 91 as a location, to get us out of the San Francisco Bay Area. We moved to Boise in June of 92. They are similar. Boise has grown over the last 25 years... So, you're new to Bend! Lots of fishing opportunities rivers, creeks and lakes. Paulina Lakes are awesome, same with Crane Prairie. Smith Rock & Crooked River area. Hiking in the Sisters. South and East is a geologic mystery, which goes back to the last ice age https://goo.gl/maps/JVmiQVMeorH2
And then there is the Newberry National Volcanic Monument.
