Looks interesting. I'm amazed how small the "big" British twins look now.

Thanks for the heads up! I've been riding Vashon quite a bit lately. It's an easy trip from over here in West Seattle.

I can't confirm the date, but I'd suggest the Lincoln Park upper parking lot (right near the ferry terminal) as a good meet-up location.

The one due east of Coleman pool on Fauntleroy Way SW and SW Monroe St or the next one south?
Either sound good to me...I'm ok w/ an early departure.
These are the weekend AM departure times.

I was thinking the 1st option. Off Fauntleroy SW near SW Monroe St. I think it's a larger, more accessible parking lot.

Vashon is a great vintage bike event. I've been several times and hate missing it.
Unfortunately that's the case this year, so in my absence, have fun!

I'll be down with 4-5 others and in this parking lot by 7:45.  Shooting for the 8:35.
Who else is in?
