Hood Canal Run

[Dang]

My neighbor and I were talking over the lawn mowers last night and decided to run up through Silverdale, across the Hood Canal Bridge and back down 101 on Saturday if anyone else is interested. I understand that they are closing the bridge on 5/1 so we wanted to do that before that loop closed. This is not a long run, but still leaves time to get some yardwork done.

I think the bridge is closed now. Not positive, though.

Dang,

What time you looking at starting?

Dang,
What time you looking at starting?

I was thinking about 8ish, but if your thinking about coming over, we could be flexible.

Wingshot.... you must be single...

I'm finding my wife is starting to hate my fjr..... so one needs to go....

Tough decision...it is

 

[Dang]

It would probably be cheaper to find a way to keep both.

The bridge closes at 0001 on May 1, 2009 for 6 weeks. See link above.

I can't make that ride. I am already committed to another on Sunday.

If you are in Puyallup, Shari's on Canyon Road & 512 might be a good place. I will send you a PM with my cell if you think you can make it.

I'll try to be there also. Just have to make the wife happy first.

 

[wingshot]

Duster... I live while I can. We will catch up and ride later this year for sure. There will be a time when I will have responsibilities and ties like you that prevent me from riding; until then. I ride at every opportunity.

As I tell my friends, there are other means of travel!!

Dang, I pmed you. If the pass and mother nature are in my favor, I can make it to the 512/canyon rd exist about 8:30. If this is too late for your plans, please provide me your intended route and I can possibly catch up with you.

Hey Wingshot, Dang, and Gary. I had alot of fun on the ride, and it was great to meet you guys.

We have no pictures so maybe it didn't happen....

The only problem was my right fork was leaking. Arrg!!

 

[Dang]

Dennis, it was good to meet you today. I never have been too good at the whole picture thing. Guess we will have to go again sometime to make sure that it really did happen. Get your seal fixed and keep me in mind if you want to go for another blast. When the weather get a little nicer, we will have to go over to Brian's territory and let him lead us around.

Dang - thanks for setting up the ride and waiting for me. The ride back over the passes (Snoqualmie - Blewett) was much warmer and drier than morning ride across.

Nice meeting you Dennis (dabayliner), I suggest GP Suspensions to help resolve your fork issue. I am really happy with my suspension work from them and so are many others on this forum.

Totally spaced the picture...did have the camera with too. Oh well, next time.

Dang, it is about time I set up a ride since I have been tagging along with everyone else for the past two years.
