  • WA ride

    I could be available for a ride in WA. But I will be out on the boat for most of July and August. So timing could be a problem for me. When I am on the mainland, I am five minutes from the Blaine border.

    • Now that I am in N. Utah, Idaho and the NW will likely be my gathering place of choice. Not sure if I will be able to pull off a trip longer than a long weekend this year, but I'd be interested to meet up with other XSives in the region.

        Hi Bug, nice to see you back on the forum. Hope you are all settled in Utah.

        • Yeah, I think I'm as settled as I'll be for a while. It's nice to finally have a real garage to park my bike in. Had to mow the grass for the first time last weekend, but I've been lucky enough to be able to ride most of the winter! Very light snow this year. A bit of a culture shock here, but I knew it was coming. I need to have someone introduce me to some decent riding roads around here though. I hear there are plenty, but I don't get out much to do any exploring.

              Washington motorcycle road racing will have a race 26 and 27 July. Will be classes for vintage bikes.
              I will be going. Should arrive Saturday morning. Probably ride Yami.

              Meanwhile I have forgotten the directions to the track, but will figure it out.

              During the week prior to the bike races I will be at Oak Harbor Whidbey Island for the sail boat races.

              • Hi Bug,

                it was good to finally meet someone from the forum. Here are just some of the rides that can be done in Utah
                http://www.motorcycleroads.com/Routes/Utah_120.html

                We will have to get together for a ride when the snow in the mountains melts a little more.

                By the way I hope the starter relay worked for you.

                • I was hoping to have a NW tech weekend here at my place but this place has been too much of a project and I don't know if it'll ever happen...

                    So I haven't been here in a really long time and am ready to start riding this year! I just replaced my rear shocks and gonna do an oil change and a tune-up on my bike so it'll be ready for the summer. I also have a girlfriend who likes to ride and will have her own bike, so it'd be fun to get together and do some riding/meet-up and/or hang out some weekend. I am working at the Mulino Airport off of 213 so can hit the road anytime and go in any direction.
                    So, if there is anybody in the area, I be happy to pull the grill out and even host a stop on a ride. Any thoughts? I thinks we just need to do it and get something going!
                    Cheers!
