Seattle Motorcycle Show

[Harald]

Dude, Seattle gets 38 inches a year...you get 36 inches a year in Peoria....not much difference there Hoss. Where I get 8....you all rust.

Yea, but those stats are misleading. The 38 inches of rain in Seattle get spread out over Many, Many days (see shirt above). So instead of hard rain on a few days like you might see in IL, you have steady drizzle over many days! :dribble: No wonder we have webbed feet around here!

And just double checking here--it's in Seattle, right? .

Well Hell, if SacMike is going: IN!

The reason we rust is salt. 24.6 of those 36 inches is Snow.

Damn Karl, why do you live in that Hell Hole?

I always try to picture the settlers, in their wagons, when they got to Illinios. They built their sod hut, cleared a field, planted their crops.

First the bugs ate everything they grew, then it got COLD and started SNOWING. Why in hell the ones that were still alive in the spring didn't get the HELL out of there always amazes me.

Maybe they came there from Syracuse and Peoria looked pretty good.

Ticket bought and printed....used code "PRG5WA" for a five buck discount.

Junior, the Cottage Inn sounds fine to me as long as nothing else comes together over on the wet side.

Jim, I'm out for this one at this time. Life came up. If I get it together, might make it for Sat PM or Sunday.

[SeattleTy]

Sounds like a great idea! :yahoo:

I vote for 11am next to the pretty new FJR.

 

[wingshot]

See you all there. 11 am it is.

 

[sickchilly]

Looks like I'll be there Sunday with the fam. Wifey says she needs to see what her next bike will be.

 

[juniorfjr]

Hope you guys dont drool in any pics. George, youre about ready to trade, aren't ya?

 

[SeattleTy]

Fantastic! sounds like we are going to get enough people for a group picture, the more the better.

I have the opportunity of covering the IMS as a reporter and will be there for all there days.

I will be writing an article about the show for a motorcycle magazine company.

In addition, to writing about the show, I would also like to write about our amazing group of FJR riders that we have here in the Northwest. I think what we have, is very unique and should be shared to the news media; therefore, a group picture would be great!

So a group picture at 11 am next to the 2013 FJR, I think would be an excellent meeting place.

Please reply and let us know if you can make or we can even make individual adjustments if you would like to be involved. Once again, this type of friendship and passion for motorcycles would be great to display to the motorcycle community.

The time and place is not set in stone, so any suggestion or feedback is good in order to make this happen.

Thank you for the post Escapefjrtist and getting this started.

I can't wait and hope to see everyone there

Not even close junior! Too many miles left in the current one...and besides, skooter would never forgive me.

There are many creative visions a person can have in the motorcycle industry and the International Motorcycle Show brings a little creativity called the "Human Motorcycles".
