I would like to thank Tom and everyone that helped put on the SBNW event, and all of those that attended and helped make it easy for us that were working there. This was my second year to work the event, and since I love motorcycles to begin with, I couldn't think of a better way to spend a weekend working than with the folks at the rally.

Super Fun Gurl!

SBNW 08 was a BLAST! Can't wait for 09.

My first time this year, and it was awesome! I am definitly taking time off next year to take in the whole thing, lots of really great people there.

And a really great job to all those that put the event on!

Pics to follow when I get home tonight.

Yeap! Good times for sure!!!


First stop on the SHAH '08 route. Wow.. that was an awesome place. A few guys from like local PCA chapter were there too.


There was a nice trio of long-nose 911's in the shop. Gorgeous!

I did not try the ice cream, I was too busy oogling. I even left with $100 in jackets (sort of ironic that I got a nice McLaren jacket at a Porsche museum!


One of many great views, from the great roads.


What can I add?


STONEHENGE!


Maryhills Loop Road. Our private playground for the afternoon.


Looking for the last elusive clue. Thank goodness we did not have to keep going back into the stone house with the throne, to get the final answer.


Harvey, busy giving away prizes. Our team became a three-time BUB CLUB winner! 'GO TEAM BEER GARDEN!'


Bike Barn!


Drawing a chip during the Poker Run (I may be old, but that is NOT me in the photo).


This was pretty cool. About 5 years ago on a trip with the local VFR group (yeah.. I owned one, ONCE), we came across a lone Ducati driver deep in the NorCal Alps. Turns out he was from Seattle. We all rode the remainer of the way to Laguna Seca that year. Well, guess what, we cross paths yet again! This time at SBNW. Dave (2nd from right) was a dude that we met, and the red 748 is the same bike! Ended up riding together for a while, he's one skilled rider. Good times.


It was cool to see a lot more female riders at SBNW 7 than at SBNW 2 (the first I attended).


The fair grounds are located in a FINE, neighborhood.


Finally, I think this pretty much summed up the nights in the beer garden.
