SilvrT Posted June 29, 2015 Share #1 Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) Just a quick post for now so y'all know I'm home safe and sound albeit a bit worn out. 17 Hours in the saddle yesterday! Left Florence, OR and headed inland. Was supposed to take route 99W north and then 26 over to Seaside but somehow got onto 99E and wound up in Portland. Got lost there trying to find route 26 but eventually did. Got to Seaside and headed for Astoria where I'd planned to stop for the night but it was still early so kept on going. Plan was to continue on route 101 and work my way to Port Townsend, WA, stopping over night somewhere. Got mixed up again and missed a turnoff on the freeway ... ended up in Olympia on I-5. As it was around 6PM I decided to just shoot for home ... landed around 11:15PM. More to come with pics and vids .... maybe tomorrow or the next day once I've had time to organize things. EDIT - Vids can be found here --> http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?105768-Venture-West-2015-Vids-and-link-to-pics&p=920402#post920402 Edited June 30, 2015 by SilvrT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvdaleather Posted June 29, 2015 Share #2 Posted June 29, 2015 Holy Cow that was one long ride.:happy65:The confusion may have been a residual affect from the unexpected heat you experienced at the event. Still I'm glad you made it home. Nap time? Thank you for coming! See you next year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyinfool Posted June 30, 2015 Share #3 Posted June 30, 2015 Did you spend to much time with @cowpuc last year and learn some of his CTFW habits? Come to intersection and flip a coin..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lone Eagle Posted July 3, 2015 Share #7 Posted July 3, 2015 I thought that fancy bike of yours had a GPS on it, SilverT??? Glad you made it home safely. May have to come up with a new rocker / patch - SilverT's Short Ride - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilvrT Posted July 3, 2015 Author Share #8 Posted July 3, 2015 I thought that fancy bike of yours had a GPS on it, SilverT??? Glad you made it home safely. May have to come up with a new rocker / patch - SilverT's Short Ride - It has a GPS ... it just can't read my mind If I'd use the damn thing once in a while, it might make a difference LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldseadog Posted July 3, 2015 Share #9 Posted July 3, 2015 I hope it is not like Kevin's GPS. Kevin's gets lost easy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
