Ride West BMW/Seattle Parts & Apparel Swap Sat. Dec. 6th

[SeattleTy]

Thanks for the heads up G. Hope you can make it to breakfast.

It would be wonderful to see more show up

Alright, the Blue Saucer at 7:30 sounds good!

 

[SeattleTy]

If its ok, I think 7 AM will better. It will give us plenty of time to take our time, otherwise 7:30 will work too.

The weather might work out to ride

 

[Oly]

7 am works for me. Sounds good.

Looking forward to the weekend!

 

[Oly]

Oops.

I am back to 7:30.

Ferry schedules being what they are, I'd have to leave my house at 4:30 AM to hit a 5:30 boat to be at the diner by 7.

Getting up at 4 on a Saturday seems a bit extreme.

The 6:30 boat just seems to make more sense.

I'll just join breakfast in progress.

 

[SeattleTy]

You are right good friend, it is suppose to be a fun process, see you when you get there, nice and safe

For sure! Stay warm up in the wilds and don't be a stranger.

Edit -- It was also a treat to have Mount Rainier stop by on his ride to Oregon. Nothing like going north to go south!

Thanks George. Enjoyed the great visit for sure.

The rain started just as I made the left hand sweeper on I-5 at Olympia and continued all the way to the Ferry in Cathlamet. Most in the PNW know that I-5 is terrible in terms of draining the rain/water off the surface. Visibility is an issue in flat light conditions and water spray while overtaking other vehicles.

Also, most PNW riders doing the upcoming Big Money Rally will get points for this bonus submission. MW938 - page 64

The Ferry Wahkiakum - Not to be confused with Ignacio's Washington State Ferries Theme bonus code FN005 - page 119

The Outside Cabins on the Wahkiakum

After a visit with Mr. & Mrs. DamTour in Clatskanie and on to Tillamook, OR via OR-47 & 6, I headed north on 101 back to WA and home thru Elma, Olympia and back up the remaining 50 miles on I-5. 505 miles on a great day in the PNW. What a place to ride a MC!!! Home just after 8 pm.

The day began with great company and ended with this magnificent Full Cold Moon. (Oh for a better lens)

Thanks Dave!

Keep going!

U boys missed the topless food server.

Yeah, that was a bit of a surprise! I wonder if she just came from work at one of the clubs down the road?

I had fun day at breakfast and the swap meet, YES the breakfast place was a very neat place. I wouldn't mind having breakfast there again.

I was troubled at the end when my bike would not start but very thankful that I was not too far away home when it happen, and was able to make it home.

Looking forward to the next event and breakfast gathering, it was enjoyable seeing everyone again
