I went to the Ace Cafe exepidition and grand opening last year. It was pretty cool. Make time to go through the Lemay Museum its well worth it. I may go this year as well if I can find someone from Seattle that wants to ride down.

  Cool, I'm looking forward to it. I believe the $20.00 registration fee includes admission to the museum.
  I know there are a bunch of members in the Seattle area, where's everybody at ?

It is worth going just to see the LeMay Auto Museum.  Some really great cars and quite a few vintage bikes.  www.lemaymuseum.org/‎

I wish there were more bikes! The curator is actually a old classic Honda fan. I met him through a friend at work that is involved with the Lemay on a volunteer basis. He was wearing a Honda motorcycle shirt when I met him. He loved my old 550. I said he could buy it for the musuem any time :) He laughed :(

I would like to try and make it down this year if my wife doesn't make plans for that weekend. The parking lot is funny you will see groups parking together like old BMWs or Triumphs. I think it would be cool to see a SOHC4 group.
