Exit 85th west, go through 2 stop lights. Just past the Wendys on the right. You'll see my Honda...

My number is in my profile.

Most of us live in the North Bend/Snoqualmie/Auburn/Puyallup area so that would be rather far out of the way for us but thank for the info.

This meet ends way too early for me. If we can make this a legit, all-evening bike NIGHT, I'll keep hauling my happy ass out here from Seattle in the rain. Otherwise, I'll only be able to come if I get off work early.

I don't mean to bitch about it, just put out a feeler to see if anyone else had the same thoughts. Anyone else think we should build this meet up a little? I mean, it's dinner time and I'm eating alone. Lame. Let's make this a real event!

Like MrLegend said we where there for over 2hrs but we left when it was starting to get dark and the rain was moving in. What time did you show up?

I am not at all opposed to moving the bike night to another location that would be closer but the reason that we where doing it out there was because not to many bike nights are held in the Snoqualmie Valley area and we wanted to meet others in the area. But since hardly anyone is showing up anymore I would be more than happy to change locations but since I work in Auburn and live in North Bend it would be cool if it could be somewhere along Hwy 18....thoughts????

Call me next time if you are coming up and I will make sure that we are there 206-313-0933. Sorry we missed you and I can understand if you don’t want to come again.

I think we just got crossed up. I was actually waiting for the rain to let up in Redmond before heading down. I think the main problem is attendance. If there was bigger turnout, people would arrive at intervals and stay a bit longer. That would mean always someone there between 6:00 and 8 or 9.

I'm not trying talk shit to you guys or anything, I just see this event is having growing pains.

Mike's Grill is a cool spot and Mike's a cool dude (Of course, he rides a Triumph!). Live music gets huge points in my book. We just gotta make it a bigger thang!

Ya no hard feelings here

I just feel bad that we keep missing each other.

I completely agree about making it bigger but as the summer is winding down the attendance is going something like this: 15-20 people...10...9...8..3, lol

Maybe trying another place might spark more interest...any ideas from anyone? I know that I would welcome some change....and maybe something closer to Issaquah might gain more attendance?

XXX is a winner everytime. I don't understand why it isn't the staple for the north and east side riders bike nights.

Seattle has a good point here. How late are they open on weeknights?

RumpigCBR · 10-09-2009, 01:17 PM

FYI - those of you who made it to Mike's this summer have made history, he's no longer in business. Sad to a see a man's dreams go like that. Will need a new WED standing bike night on the Eastside of the Westside...

Damn that really blows!! I made it out there 4 or 5 times and he was super cool and the food was good too.

Im bummed now

Jay · 10-09-2009, 08:07 PM

Yeah that sad that this happened. Great food, times, music and meeting fellow riders. I wish Mike the best.

busatim · 10-12-2009, 05:11 AM

XXX is waaayy expensive.

busatim · 10-12-2009, 05:14 AM

I know Carnation is a ways but Pete's bar has one Hell of a steak night on Weds. That's where I usually go.

WHAAAAT?! That's a damn shame! Mike is a cool guy and had the only standing live music night I've been to around here. I made it out a handful of times. My best to him and his erstwhile employees.

I can get to Carnation just as easy as I can get to Snoqualmie. And I love Pete's. Post it.

KatiScarlet · 10-13-2009, 07:07 AM

I agree Pete's is excellent and a billion times better than XXX. I have frozen my ass off to ride out there before, but it's always worth it.
