Our annual Seattle get together, now with a flyer!

Ice · **Reply #1 on:** May 17, 2017, 02:58:18 am

I like it !

retrolynn · **Reply #2 on:** May 17, 2017, 03:20:35 am

Great! Wish I could go.

Ice · **Reply #3 on:** May 17, 2017, 04:49:00 am

If you could make it you would be a shoe in for the longest distance traveled award.

Bill Harris · **Reply #4 on:** May 17, 2017, 04:57:51 am

Very nice indeed! Good job.

Royal Enfield people are good people

Cheers,
Bill

harshjain · **Reply #5 on:** May 17, 2017, 06:03:19 pm

That is cool. Wish there was one in the bay area

Ice · **Reply #6 on:** May 18, 2017, 02:53:22 am

The invitation to the gathering is an open one.

Consider that Ducati Scotty rode his C5 UCE straight through from Portland to S.F. and another time from Portland to Seattle.

If you left on Thursday traveling by car, plane, train, bus or Bullet you could easily be at the Nick on Saturday morning.

We would have to google map it but you would certainly be a contender for the longest distance traveled award.

The best road trips start with "why not ?"

I better get my butt moving if I'm gonna make it from Jersey in time ! Hehehehe !

Awesome job on that flyer Narada.

Narada · **Reply #8 on:** May 18, 2017, 04:14:49 am

You'd better get that Celtic Compressor flying GHG! Maybe put some racing fuel in and meet up with reyrolynn on the way?

Backfire Moto had a pretty good turn out for a cloudy day. Everyone is stir crazy around here from the rain.

Now that it's gone, its time to get out and ride!

The guys at Seattle Royal Enfield / Triumph loved the fliers (5"X7" color) and had me put one on each bike, all countertops, and the bulitin board!

Backfire had them before I even got there! Word gets around fast.

If you make it out here lunch and a desert of 21 year old Knappogue Castle is on me.

Thanks Mike ! Lets see here ? From Ho-Ho-Kus... DUE west for three or four thousand miles to Wala Wala ... hook a right and I'm there !

Narada · **Reply #11 on:** May 19, 2017, 02:50:28 am

That sounds right.

When you reach the Cascades , watch out for Sasquatch!

retrolynn · **Reply #12 on:** May 19, 2017, 02:55:17 am

Its only about 500 miles from western Montana! My daughter lives in Spanaway. A long trip on an Enfield!

REpozer · **Reply #13 on:** May 19, 2017, 03:37:30 am

One day I hope to take the "farthest away" award.
That will be the day one of the Ozzys or Britts will show up lol.

Narada · **Reply #14 on:** May 19, 2017, 04:54:55 am

Some have been known to ride through Spanaway to get here.

Just trying to figure out how to attach floats to my B5 to sail across the 'Pond'!
Maybe next year :-)

Narada · **Reply #16 on:** May 20, 2017, 04:41:28 pm

Weather looks gorgeous this morning!

Perhaps we may have a group ride to Magnolia bluff later this afternoon?

Ice · **Reply #17 on:** July 09, 2017, 07:10:26 am

Cross posted from the Washington Bullet Owners thread in Iron Barrel

Vintage Motocross races at Pacific Raceway in Kent July 15th.

Bills going, Ballroom dancers going, Damon might be, a couple of buddies are going, I'm going. To find us just look for the RE t-shirts or hats.

sven trials · **Reply #18 on:** July 09, 2017, 03:02:32 pm

I'm outa town that weekend, otherwise sounds like a blast!!

Ice · **Reply #19 on:** July 12, 2017, 05:34:06 am

I'll take some pictures for you.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bill tells me that the gates open at 7:00 rider brief is at 8:00 and general admission tickets are $10 No idea about pit passes yet.

Ice · **Reply #20 on:** August 03, 2017, 06:12:26 am

The consensus so far is that the 3rd weekend of August is best for the Portland ride out.

If your reading this your welcome to come with.

Damon, Sven, Bill, Curtis, Mike, Bill,Narada, Ballroom Dancer, Stealth Bomber, thirteenboxes. Two very good friends one with a car and trailer the other with a pick up truck are on standby for us in case of a serious breakdown.

Ducati Scotty, what is your recommendation for lunch ?

Narada · **Reply #21 on:** August 03, 2017, 02:00:30 pm

Just to clarify... the third weekend would be the 19th and 20th? Saturday or Sunday?

Narada · **Reply #22 on:** August 03, 2017, 07:38:42 pm

I have just been informed that Sunday the 20th is better for me.

Narada · **Reply #23 on:** August 04, 2017, 01:49:37 am

Please disregard previous post. Saturday or Sunday are fine!

Ice · **Reply #24 on:** August 04, 2017, 03:51:15 am

Yes, the 19th or 20th. I like Saturday the 19th better.

Narada, how do you feel about messaging the first half of the WABO member list and I'll message the second half ?

So far only You, Ducati Scotty,Damon, Bill, Sven Trials, Ballroom Dancer, Stealth Bomber, thirteenboxes and Mike and Me have been in contact.

Jest2dogs has a prior engagement and bids us good riding.

Narada · **Reply #25 on:** August 04, 2017, 04:28:29 am

I think Saturday would be more sensable. Then I could spend Sunday recovering!

I'll see if I can dig up that list and say hello to the top half tomorrow.

Ice · **Reply #26 on:** August 04, 2017, 04:48:47 am

Thanks brother ! list is on page 82 of the other WABO thread https://forum.classicmotorworks.com/index.php/topic,803.1215.html

Ice · **Reply #27 on:** August 05, 2017, 05:27:16 am

Messages sent to the other half.

Many of the WA Bullet Owners are infrequent to this particular site. Wee need a better way to connect.

Any suggestions beside the dreaded Facebook ?
