Miles Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share #26 Posted February 26, 2013 When the date gets picked I will do my best to attend. Mike Yeah !!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67mini67 Posted February 26, 2013 Share #27 Posted February 26, 2013 Miles, I may be interested depending on date. I did the freebird MD a couple of years ago and it was great and a great ride. I too may have to cage it as the bike is disassembled for paint right now and the temps and weather are not acceptable for painting yet. I'll keep watching for more info. Thanks, Wayde Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin-vic-b.c. Posted February 26, 2013 Share #28 Posted February 26, 2013 If you can make it as late as mid April... after the 14th I can be there 90% chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share #29 Posted February 26, 2013 Wayde and Kevin, I am happy to hear that the Eastern Slopes of Washington, and the Canadians will be coming. I am officially choosing a date...right here...right now. The date will be April 27, 2013...at 1:00 pm. That should give anyone and everyone a chance to figure out their schedules and calendars, and plan accordingly. As to WHERE...that is still undecided, but it will be somewhere within 9.314159 miles of Tacoma, WA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevin-vic-b.c. Posted February 27, 2013 Share #32 Posted February 27, 2013 Well, that takes me out. Saturdays don't work for me. I hope everyone has a blast. Wish I could do it. If I am going to ride all the way down there it will not be just for one day so I will be around checking the sights out so join me or show me some of them if another day is better with you, I will drink Starbucks in any country with anyone anytime I can. I spent a week end with my wife in Seattle a couple weeks ago and loved it... cannot wait to see more of the area. ooh and I hope know-one will be too upset if I show up on my V-Strom not my Venture.

It will be an over-nighter for us too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonRider Posted February 27, 2013 Share #37 Posted February 27, 2013 Dont forget Vogel, Aug `14-18. Okay, all you wet coast riders from the Great Pacific Northwest...Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Nor. Cal., B.C., and anyone else that wants to be part of the Great Pacific Northwest... Imwould like to host a Meet and Greet...er...Eat...sometime in the next 2 months. Either in March or April. I think "we" can find a suitable restaurant in the vicinity to meet at. This will NOT be a MD. I also want to discuss dragging as many of you as possible out to the Freebird MD in Ohio, with me, in June. I have many tow ropes, so come along. Also, we need to talk about the International Rally in Galena, IL. in late July. So, this is your heads-up, put your thinking caps on, and let's get together to meet, to eat, to greet, and plan our rides to those flat states east of us.

Miles Posted February 28, 2013 Author Share #38 Posted February 28, 2013 Dont forget Vogel, Aug `14-18. Fortunately for me, I do have other riding plans at that same time. I say...fortunately...because I am not a fan of the heat and humidity of the southest. Lived there too many times, ridden there many more times, and I would rather do 1000 miles a day in cold weather, than to do 500 miles day in the heat and humidity. But hey, ya'all have fun.

Sailor Posted February 28, 2013 Share #39 Posted February 28, 2013 Well if Kevin, Rick and Nina are going I may be able to join in. It would be an overnighter. We have tentative plans to go to Clinton and 100 mile for that weekend but they are not firmed up yet. Getting from my island to Kevins island then over to Big-Stink-Across-the-Water ( local name for Vancouver) takes a while. I will have to check with SWMBO first.

Sailor Posted February 28, 2013 Share #40 Posted February 28, 2013 Just saw news about longer lineups at the U.S. border due to budget cuts. Looking at the news about Anhouser-Buch watering down their beer perhaps I should take the truck and fill it with cases of beer, a humanitarian run.

If it works out that we do go (based on weather), you could always come over Friday and stay the night at our place. As we're both working Friday, we can't leave until Sat morning and definately will do an over niter and maybe take a scenic route on the return.

Miles Posted February 28, 2013 Author Share #42 Posted February 28, 2013 The Great Pacific Northwest Meet & Eat gathering has now been posted on the forum page for Meets & Eats. Please go there for further info. BUT...for those of you from the country north of us, the event is being held in Lacey, WA., which means...anyone on Vancouver Island or other islands that connect with Vancouver Island, can take the ferry across to Port Angeles, WA. and ride down from there. It will be faster and shorter than going over to The Big Stink (Vancouver) and taking I-5 all the way down. Please go to the Meet & Eat forum page, and please rsVRp there.
