Topic: Seattle area Vashon Island ride Sunday August 29, 2010

Anyone want to come ride with me??

Here is the info for this ride on Aug 29. I took this from Seattle Motorcycle Rider's Meetup calendar...

The time now is tentative, may need leave early since last year motorcycles overtook 3 ferries completely!

Let's meet at the Fauntleroy Lincoln Park turn out on Sunday Aug 29th 2010 at 10:00 and hit the 10:45am ferry. Stands up and heading to the Ferry at 10:20, if you are late head straight in and look for all the chicas on the Ferry dock. Don't wait behind cars.

Last year things didn't get kickin til at least noon, so this time should do fine.

There is a Vintage Motorcycle Rally on Vashon this Sunday. Due to politics or whatever, they are not able to officially advertise the ride to non-members (see http://vmemc.org/IOV/IOV.htm), but there are a lot of groups planning on heading out the Vashon to ride with them.

Quick update, most of us are going to be on the 9:15AM ferry. We're gonna meet up with the guys from Tacoma that will hopefully be waiting for us at the dock. The Tacoma ferry runs a little earlier.

I have yet to find anyone on this side of the water who is going- SOHC or otherwise.    I'm going to hit the 10:10 out of Southworth- should be on Vashon island, north end, around 10:20.
