The title says it all, going on a short ride (from Ellensburg to Cle Elum and back on the back roads) this Sunday starting at about 1:00 pm. I'll be filling up at the Chevron just off of I-90 exit 106 (west Ellensburg exit) right at 1:00 then heading out about a quarter past.

Thought I'd send out a nice generic invite to all interested; hope to see someone there!

How back road are we talkin'?

Doc · 03-06-2009, 06:46 PM

No off-roading, if that's what you're wondering. It's a ride I've done plenty of times, average speed limit of 50 mph. And lots of twisties, so good times. Only about an hour and a half total if we grab lunch.

EburgR1200GS · 03-06-2009, 07:53 PM

I'm game. If my beemer's not there at noon assume I won't ever be there.

Timebom · 03-06-2009, 08:16 PM

dang, have a meeting noon... 1 pm would be nicer, but then everything should go according to My plan. lol

Doc · 03-06-2009, 08:33 PM

haha, but when I said noon I wasn't expecting any real turn out, so I'm officially changing it to 1:00. Is that all right with you, EburgR1200GS?

EburgR1200GS · 03-06-2009, 09:01 PM

i'm easy, cheap too. 1300 it is.

Timebom · 03-08-2009, 01:19 AM

snow permitting? we actually have a skiff or so on the ground..

Doc · 03-08-2009, 10:45 AM

So it looks like the snow is clearing, I'll be there, but it's still cold so I wouldn't blame anyone for not making it (I'll just call them pansies behind their backs for years to come). Also, daylight savings just ended so this thing is just 2 hours away now.

Driftertank · 03-08-2009, 11:06 AM

Me and JMKogut might make it up that way... if I can get my arse in gear...

jmkogut · 03-08-2009, 11:11 AM

That trip looks hella awesome, I'll do my best to kick driftertank's ass in gear.

Timebom · 03-08-2009, 11:39 AM

hmm, want to go, but hate road spray. .. might stop by to say hi

EburgR1200GS · 03-08-2009, 06:15 PM

That was fun. Its days like these that make me laugh when I see ads for HDs that say,
"never ridden in the rain".

It'll be fun to see the photos.

Nice to meet you Doc, thanks for the invite to ride along. Catch y'all next time.

Timebom · 03-08-2009, 07:31 PM

well it was good to see everyone even if we wussed out. lol

jmkogut · 03-08-2009, 10:46 PM

Excellent ride for us too. It started snowing enough to stick to our helmets on the way back to yaktown, fortunately it was only for a couple of miles (if that).

Driftertank · 03-09-2009, 09:21 AM

Good ride, if a little chilly...
