Good afternoon everyone...I was riding all day yesterday, then woke early today and did some holiday shopping/riding and thought to myself, I should see if there are any Stumptown or Couver riders on this forum? So...Are there? I know it will be hard to set anything up with the Holidays among us...and after that...January/February...our coldest months usually, but maybe if we communicate now we can look forward to setting something up for Spring? I live in Fairview/Wood Village/Troutdale area...Work in Sherwood...not looking forward to "locking her up" until Jan/Feb, even then I won't be shutting her down completely. Just in case. So...enough of my ramblings...Where you guys or gals at?

I'm thinking a Coast run? Mt. Hood? Eastern Oregon? Hell, I don't need to give examples...You folks know we live in the greatest part of the US by far (very Bias I know)! We have it all at our finger tips!! :wink:

Hey Revolt,

I'm down here in Eugene, but am always into a group ride in and around Ptown. Give me a shout come spring time.

Your On...I'm always up for a Eugene cruise too...Thanks for responding!

I'm in.......let's rock!

Kelso WA. There are more of us north of me.

I'll add to the list: Hwy 14 through the gorge and then up to Troutlake and Glenwood. Or over to Goldendale and out to Bickleton. Or for a change of direction cross the bridge at Longview and head to Vernonia and beyond. Or out to the Long Beach peninsula, or, etc, etc. You are right. Its like living in Disneyland for motorcyclists.

Got mine stored but will be ready as soon as possible come spring. :???:

I'm just west of the hills near the junction of 26 and 217.

It pained me yesterday, being stuck in the office, then seeing people on their bikes when I went out to lunch... I haven't been on mine in almost three weeks!

REVOLT · 12-22-2006

Keep'em coming folks!!! I would love to see 20+ Bonnevilles cruising in to the PIR Wednesday night drags!! Have any of you been there for that? Great deal...$5 gets you in and it's full of Classics, Hot Rods, Race Cars, Motorcycles of all sorts, Drag races (you can race too!), Beaches Restaurant has the food covered...burgers, dogs...Live Rockn' Roll (Oldies) music...Every Wednesday Night June through October...That would be a great place to head up a "Monthly" meeting for a possible MCC? Think it over...I'd Love to start up something like that...

Just so you know...I'm not a Hell Raise'n, Beer guzzling, Gun carrying, knife wielding type of guy...for those that "hesitate" to join or participate in a Motorcycle Club...

I know R.A.T. is ran through Cascade MotoClassics...We can always ride with them?

Hey Tlaloc...I like the name...Aztec Rain God?

There's a new forum in town...for oregon riders.

www.oregonsundayride.com will get you there.

Gary knows about it.

It'll eventually be the home to the Eugene RAT Pack.

Sign up - post stuff, coordinate rides and meet new people.

I bought the first Bonnie from the Eugene dealer. Has treated me good and I continue to do business with them even though there are closer dealers. Makes for a nice ride down there.

Didn't somebody try to get a pack going down there once before?

We might get more response posting this on the other twin forum.

Tlaloc · 12-26-2006

Yes, Tlaloc is the Aztec rain deity. It makes me wonder if the indigenous people of the Pacific NW had a similar one...

I've been to a couple of the Cascade Moto Classics-sponsored RAT breakfasts. Bonnevilles are well-represented, as are most all Triumphs.
