NAMOA convention, Tulalip Casino, Marysville WA,

[Niehart]

Wednesday – Friday – the NAMOA convention. NAMOA is the organization for police motorcycle officers, and their annual convention will be at the Tulalip Casino north of Marysville. It features various competitions where officers on large and heavy police spec motorcycles do things that frankly, have to be seen to be believed. :blink: Their competition is open to spectators, and if you can get the time Wednesday or Thursday I highly recommend you add this to your education.

Dave Preston will be there with the Ride West BMW events van, so stop by and harass him! :lol:

Well worth the price of admission, had to walk from another parking lot. Those boys are fast on that course, 4 states and Canada there. The finials are Friday.

Well worth the ride and time.

charon76, Nice to meet you.

George, those were some tasty roads!

Admission was free...but it was still worth it!

Fun afternoon away from work, got rid of the hot-potato for a bit anyway. These boys [and girls!] have some serious skills riding through the various courses. It was fun seeing the Vancouver BC group maneuvering their new Victory's around the tight course. A few ended up down but at the end of the day the boys were doing pretty well.

Good meeting you charon76. We'll definitely take a peninsula ride one of these days.

George, those were some tasty roads!

You're welcome Dave...always good taking the long way home!! :clapping:

Was nice to meet you two also. You were right, it was definitely something that had to be seen to be believed.
