What: Beginner ride/ Dam Tour/ Picnic
When: Saturday, March 28, '09
Where: McKay Dam, OR.
Located Six miles South of Pendelton, OR.
We are gonna 'limit' riding on the Interstate Hiway as much as possiable.
This will be at or as close to the posted speed limits.
'IF' you feel the need for speed, this isnt your type of ride.
Meet: Starbucks 8:00AM
395 and Clearwater
Kennewick, WA.
We LEAVE at 9:00AM Sharp!

Have your Picnic packed and your bike Fueled!
Im gonna try to talk 'Wistrik' into leading, as its his 'backyard'.
Beginner riders are encouraged to join in, no matter what you ride.

GSXR-RACER · 03-23-2009, 02:38 PM

Well I guess I won't go then.. LOL
I might make it to get feed back from my new bike!!

JayD1981 · 03-23-2009, 02:55 PM

I'm guessing that I qualify as not very fast since I got passed by a freaking motorhome last weekend.

Ya mean NOT stupid?
That was in the rain, in the dark, and we where doing 5 over the posted.
I cant figure why he then pulled over and stopped 5 miles later.

So does that mean you coming??? Thats what beginner rides are all about practicing skills and having fun with friends and nobody ending up in the ER!!!!

Im gonna try to talk 'Wistrik' into leading, as its his 'backyard'.

I don't know no Wistrik, but Wistrick (Dan) will be happy to lead when we hit Hwy 730 if Jimmy can get us out of Washington.!!!!

Come on people dust those bike off, slap the battery in and let ride. I wanna see as many if not more than we had the last beginners ride of 08 !!!!!!!!!!!!!

See ya all there?????????????

Round-up the Posse!!

jpilot98 · 03-23-2009, 06:25 PM

would love ta join.... but will be on my way for 7 days of fun in sunny mexico

SiX · 03-23-2009, 08:21 PM

Bad timing for me. I have a friend coming in from Phoenix for a whole week. I probably won't be riding much during that time.

Nate04 · 03-24-2009, 03:30 AM

I would love to go but I will be working from 9am till aboot 2ish. Depending on the rout you take, if you see a FedEx truck heading towards Umatilla, that's me. I'll try not to hit ya =P

james1300 · 03-24-2009, 06:09 AM

There will be more!

Wistrick · 03-24-2009, 06:18 AM

We are going to a picnic in the park in Pendleton after we hit the Dam!! So bring your sack lunches boys n girls!!!

Dan

james1300 · 03-24-2009, 11:20 AM

I will have room in my saddlebags to haul your lunch 'if you need help'.
First come first carry! Post up if you want me to carry your lunch.

I'm bringing my "Roy Rogers" lunch box and match'in thermos. Guarenteed to have 'warm milk' before we leave the TriCities!

Canucks_Fan · 03-24-2009, 11:35 AM

I'll go, but only if we can stop at a subway or quiznos along the route. I'm not too good with the whole "bring a lunch" concept.

If Subway's that close, I agree we could stop there for those that dont want to bring lunch.

The BIGGEST reason to picnic is 'time'.
Last season we wasted as much as 2 good hours waiting for cold food, with poor service.

JayD1981 · 03-24-2009, 12:58 PM

Now I need to find a chick to make me a sammich for the trip.

Jack say's the Girlz at Subway do a mean Turkey on 9 grain bread!!!

sschering · 03-24-2009, 01:12 PM

Well if my dam fork seals ever show up I might be able to fix my dam bike and go on this dam ride

dam..

Oh yeah, I agree. No lunch at places that have to cook food- we were hosed last year. Subways are usually pretty fast though.

Nope I picked up a cool messenger bag @ REI today for use on the VFR, if I put luggage on her the wife will make me sell the Vstrom :(

Driftertank · 03-24-2009, 03:25 PM

I want to go, but I've decided to try and save up and make the Laguna trip this summer

Besides, no bike ins....

james1300 · 03-24-2009, 04:36 PM

Gotta have Bike insurance in Oregon. They will Tow and impound without it.
Better to wait.

Driftertank · 03-24-2009, 04:37 PM

just getting off a 5 year break from riding....on the street, so I figure this might be my speed plus I don't know anyone to ride with and I hoped it would be a good opportunity to meet new like minded people

Wistrick · 03-24-2009, 06:50 PM

Hope to see you there, look forward to meeting you!!!!!!!!

slink · 03-25-2009, 01:05 PM

I'd be willing to tag along, though do we have an estimated time for being back?

james1300 · 03-25-2009, 02:11 PM

Hey! Ya didn't say your NEW to the Site! Welcome!
Theres LOTS to Do!
We have Wednesday Nite Bike Nites, starting up every Wednesday in April.
Friday Nite CoFFee!
Sunday CoFFee and a ride, some times theres more than one ride going.
During the summer, folks will post up 'Dairy Queen', and we will meet there too!
Like last Saturday when, some went to 'Desert Valley Power Sports' Open House.
While another group rode to 'Rock Island Dam', Wenatchee, and way beyond!
Theres track day's. Both Super Motard, and Road Coarse, and we are working on 'Mid-Bike' (110cc pocket bikes) track time at the Kart track.

3:00PM my 'guess'

slink · 03-25-2009, 02:45 PM

Thanks for the welcome. I havent rode a lot, still on my first year and under 5k miles... figured maybe this is the right type of ride for me. I dont think my 500 has too much of a problem keeping up (for the most part) with the big boys.

you have chosen a great group to join for this ride... very patient with the new peeps... although i would recommend making sure you are fueled up.. cuz when you have to hit the reserve tank and your behind james.. forget him paying attention... dont honk the horn, jump up and down, yell, scream... he wont hear ya

(just kiddin james)... cant wait to join in on these rides again now that things are slowing down in my life lol.... hope you guys have fun... will be thinking about ya... well... naw.. will be too busy doing other fun things

There's nothing wrong with a 500 man and don't worry about keeping up, just ride your own ride. The people here are pretty considerate, if we get carried away on a nice stretch of twisties, we will wait for you to catch up.
