Nice guy.  Loved to talk. 

A 10 minute ferry ride from Seattle, and you really feel like you're far from it.

Snapped this when I ran out of gas yesterday trying to stretch it to the next station  ::) Luckily, the tank is easy to remove and take to the pump  8)

In ontario, gas stations have a list of approved containers. Rubber boot is not on it. :)

You are correct. It is not. I'm working on getting it road-worthy.

Awesome weather in the PNW for the Isle of Vashon TT.  A few thousand bikes descended on this sleepy little island for the day.
Hooked up with speedwolf and a few buddies for some bike watching, poker run, and a ride around the island..

Ran into the original owner of a well kept daily rider sandcast - frame and engine VINS's in the mid 6000's. 
Nice guy.  Loved to talk. 

A 10 minute ferry ride from Seattle, and you really feel like you're far from it.

Hahaha. Nice pics that 400f with the 2 helmets is mine. :). It was an excellent day as the weather turned out prefect.

Here are a few more















Cheers all!
