PNW Riders

beansbaxter · 06-12-2008, 05:24 AM

PNW Riders has setup this Rally Week in the Gorge forum to help riders talk and plan ahead for the annual summer event.

With four different rallies happening over Rally Week in August, four subforums have been created.

And be sure to post up pictures from your times at the event!

http://www.soundrider.com is the site and I'm sure if you lobby the event director he'll consider cruisers. The answer is always no if you don't ask the question. You could just go crash on of the groups

Take your pick, they may all be equally freaked out..

Actually, you would be welcomed in any group and only feel really strange in the dual sport group, that is, unless you put knobby's on

If the Northwest needed one more cruiser rally I'm sure they'd do it but the fact is the Northwest has plenty of cruiser rallies and events... right? This rally was designed to fill the gaps, like lack of multiday sportbike, sport touring (non denominational), dualsport and maxi scoot events. Makes sense to me.

The promoters have offered to set aside a specific camping area for PNW Riders. We just need to tell them how many to expect so we can get the space marked off. They want to know by 8/15. Cast your spot here and we'll hang together. If you're bringing an RV it's important to point that out as well.

There's two of us coming up from Klamath Falls..maybe a third. That's just my group..probably more though. That would be great if there is a PNW section...giddy up. By the way...is there like a bike show/contest there?

I went last year and had a great time. Riders brought all kinds of bikes (mostly sport bikes though) from scooters to goldwings, so don't feel left out. There's a good friendly crowd, well planned out events, and it's professionally hosted. The demo rides from Triumph, BMW, and Aprilia were a blast. They feed you well, have coffee every morning, and there's plenty to see in the area. To make it even better, the weather was awesome.

Bring ear plugs if youre a light sleeper, since the campground is by the railroad tracks, and trains run 24 hrs...

I didn't see a bike show for customs or anything, but the parking barn was worth a walk through just to check out the attendees rides. There will be a silent auction, a few small clinics and a poker run, as well as a 500 mile tour and access to a very twisty road called Mary Hill Loops Rd.

Its well worth taking a couple days off and spending some time.

I am planning on attending, leaving Kent either Wednesday evening with an overnight south of Mt. Raininer or leaving Thursday AM ? Does anyone have any suggestions of places to spend Wednesday night at ? Right now I am traveling solo. I plan to tent camp at the event, but prefer to just crash on a couch or bed Wednesday evening.
