Ok, so how about this. eh meets huh where hwy 237 meets hwy 20. On a map they intersect, seems like a logical spot. Say 11:00am? If we allow two hours from there to get to the tavern that should be enough. The ferry at Clinton sails on the half hour.

Does this work?

Now I’m feeling like I’ve gone from the eh crowd to the huh crown, cause I can’t find hwy 237 anywhere.

Anyone know roughly when Godzilla is coming through so I can plan a little better for that?

I think that’s one of the reasons we are going to the meeting. To find out.

Can't make it, didn't order tires for my 500 yet

This meeting is to meet the riders in the PNW, find out which route it should go and who's going to do it. The piece to the puzzle I can't seem to get from our neighboring locations is when and where it will enter our area. So far my attempts to contact anyone has been meet with nor response. I was hoping to have more info by this weekend. Let's hope I can get a response.

8:30 in Blaine.If you guys get off the meridian st/bellis fair mall exit in Bellingham off I-5 ,go right and my house is right on Meridian St,we can have Breakfast at Diamond Jim's which is right there as well,then I can show you the way through b'ham to Chuckanut.Anyone?sound good??

wookie · « **Reply #132 on:** June 09, 2011, 07:53:24 PM »

I don't think breakfast was in the plans. If you want to ride with us we will be at the chevron in Blaine at 8:30.

seaweb11 · « **Reply #133 on:** June 09, 2011, 07:59:23 PM »

We could slow down and take a look for you on the side of the hwy at bellis fair mall around 9:00 ?

Come on guys. We don’t need to stop for breakfast, but it only takes a couple of minutes to swing by Bart’s house to collect him. I’ve got his address logged into my GPS so the detour will be minimal.

All for one and one for all.

FunJimmy · « **Reply #137 on:** June 10, 2011, 03:09:00 PM »

Looking forward to tomorrows ride to Seattle and the planning meet.
Some of you might be doing an over nighter, but I need to be back Saturday evening/night at some point, so those returning will have company on the way home.

See you all in the morning.

Cheers

good times. It was great to finally see bikes and faces.
Great that the BC group came all the way down.

FunJimmy · « **Reply #142 on:** June 11, 2011, 09:49:57 PM »

Wow, what a great day with a great bunch of friends.
Just got home and I'm so glad we made the trip to see everyone.
When can we do it again?

neverendingproject · « **Reply #143 on:** June 11, 2011, 10:09:08 PM »

Looks like a great turnout, wish I could have been there. That's a long day for you Jimmy hope the weather held out.

brandEn · « **Reply #144 on:** June 11, 2011, 10:20:39 PM »

It was a good turnout for sure. Long way to ride for lunch! It was great meeting everyone and seeing all the CB's. Next time we should plan for more of a ride and meet somewhere halfway... HWY 20 comes to mind.

Yea, Jimmy's in bed already...... I just walked in the door!

It was great meeting up with everyone and putting faces to screen names, great pics! Props to the Vancouver crew for riding that far for a beer.

North cascades ride looks to be planned for July 16th. It would be a great ride and about the same distance to the meeting spot for all this time around. My buddy is planning the ride over at DTT.
