| Permit Joined: Jul 2012 From: Port Orchard, WA I Ride: Triumph Daytona T595, Tiger 1050 | Happy Thanksgiving, Sunday ride....? I hope everyone is having a great day. It was dry enough to get both bikes out and move some fluids through them, they have been sitting on battery tenders with fuel stabilizer since mid-October. Now that the leaves are mostly off the roads and with hunting season over I will be trying to ride a bit more. I hope to ride this Sunday, go over to W.Seattle, follow the waterfront down to Tacoma and back up to Port Orchard. Buffalo tacos for lunch in Tacoma. Let me know if you are in for this holiday weekend ride! |

Possibly in, depending on scheduling from the Admiral. |

If anyone was wondering yes that is illegal gravel that I'm parked on in the picture. Oddly enough my DRZ and my buddy's HD don't have any balance issues on it though.

Take the 11:30 ferry over to W. Seattle from Southworth. Ride up to Alki, make the Tulley's at Alki the meeting spot over there, about 12:30. From there you head south along the water, kind of. Thru Des Moines, follow 509 to Tacoma, up to Ruston to eat buffalo, then thru Gig Harbor and Ollalla. It makes a great 4 hour winter ride. The pace? it won't be slow but it will be mostly legal. David? You available for this on Sunday? Good day to test the heated gloves. |

You will like the ride, it's a very entertaining city tour, with some views and even a few good twisties. We'll top it off with a great lunch. I will see some of you at the Southworth ferry for the 11:30 run, we'll see who we add in Seattle and points south. |
