Are you here?
Turning eastbound onto Stark at 257th. Approx. 5pm Thursday. I think it was a 1K but traffic and all that luggage made it hard to see!
Nice looking ride!:D

Yellow '08 Wee this Saturday

Saw you turning right from S. bound Shute onto Evergreen west bound, you turned into the newly constructed building on the same corner.

About 12 noon ish, I saw the double take look as you saw me on my Yellow '03 Vee in the left turn lane of N. bound Shute, waiting for the light so I could turn onto Evergreen west bound as well.

Would have waved, but I was on the clutch waiting for the light, sorry.

Looked into the parking area to see if you had stopped someplace to wait for me, couldn't see you, so I continued on my ride. Hope you didn't have to work on such a beautiful riding day. I was just starting my 110m loop, after a quick stop at Napa auto parts to whip up batter connection for my tire pump. Seems I've got a loose ground or blown fuse on my SAE flat 2 heated gear connector that I use to power my pump. Found what I needed and got the pump working and tires into spec. Had a great ride.

See you around some time,

Mirage...

Blue DL1000 '07 rider in black jacket & helmet - oh wait that was me. Seen in driver's side mirror that was 3 feet in front of me as that pick-up truck decided I was expendable and merged into my lane on I-405 yesterday! I will say though that when he bothered to look (after I thumb-stumbled a bit to get the horn sounding) he just about had a heart attack (could have taken us both out...). That's one 20-something who just got a 'life lesson' and is now a cycle-aware driver. Now, I have to go change my shorts.:mad:

Black DL1000 on 46 near Ripplebrook

On Sunday I passed four bikes with a DL1000 in the lead on forest service road 46, heading back toward Ripplebrook from Detroit (after getting turned back by snow). I was following a guy on a blue CBR. A gal with blonde hair in a pony tail was on a black cruiser maybe second in line. I was in the silver DL650 with a gray Aerostich and gray helmet, Givi V46 top box but no side cases.

Sighted 3 Stroms within about 15 minutes this afternoon about 5pm.
First was Silver two up, Westbound on HWY 212 just east of I205.
Next was closer to Damascus also westbound. Dont remember the color.
Next was at the 7/11 at the intersection of 281(?) and Division in Gresham. Blue or silver.
Great day for a ride.

Just wanted to say "what's up" to the Stromtrooper I met at the Shell in downtown North Bend. I was the guy on the VTX, you were the guy on the silver Strom, running away from an angry girl in full gear ;)

Today (Saturday), two blue (I think) Wee's passed me on Snoqualmie Valley road. Riding together, followed by another bike (blue SV?) I was parked on the side, taking some pictures.

Also, a dark blue Vee (I think) passed me by my house in North Bend, while I was parked on the side talking on the phone. We exchanged waves.

Are any of the riders Stromtroopers? :)

Troutdale

Red Strom pulling into 'my' subdivision in Troutdale this evening about 8:45 or so.
I tried to flash the 'V' sign from my truck (in front of you) eastbound on Stark. Hope you could see both fingers! :D

Black V-Strom with side cases, rider with light colored helmet exiting Hwy 26. I was riding down from Skyline on my black DL 650 wearing white full face, blue/black jacket. Nice ride today, little warm but a good Saturday.

Peace,

Barton
Saw ya there. Was wondering if it was someone here. I was just finishing up a 400 mi day comings back from down south of the steens mts. Played around in the gravel down there for a few days, and man was it a warm ride home! Hope you had a good ride. Cheers.
