I know, I think it is funny too. He wrote me up for 'Failure to Yeild to an Emergency Vehicle'! He was the emergency vehicle. I did stop. Dingle sucks. He also wrote me for having a 'modified muffler'. I guess he thought Betty a bit on the loud side... sooner, Galen (Message edited by sparropie on April 23, 2007) |

Galen, I hope you follow through with this....Fight the ticket and push this poor excuse's supervisor to have an independant investigation by Internal Affairs. This needs a reality check. Please don't let this mennace continue with his ego driven mis-conduct. Please Galen, it's important stuff. If you want to talk to me more about this, email or call. |

WTF,this is CA and we don't do rain after April????? But sat and sun were superb,80 degrees and beautiful.Went to Half Moon Bay for the Legend of the Motorcycle show, what a great event.Tons of great bikes on the greens at Ritz Carlton overlooking the Pacific,woohoo!!Choptop snuck the wife and I into the celebrity/exhibitor reception on friday night, saw Willie G.-- Erik B.-- free drinks--double woohoo!! |

Hey all... I'm a Portland Type, haven't met any of you in person yet but hope to make Splash this year... Anyhow, My folks live in Seattle and I'm going to ride up this weekend for a quick visit. I was thinking of a nice ride up the east side of Mt St. Hellens, north past Mt. Ranier then in to Tukwila. I've eyed I5 North to 503 East to NF90 and NF25 to 12 East to 123 North to 410 West. Anyone ever ride any of this? I want to stay below 3500 feet and on pavement. Any Advice? -121.536255&spn=1.706209,3.702393&z=8&om=1,http:// maps.google.com/maps?ie=UTF8&ll=46.592844,-121.536 255&spn=1.706209,3.702393&z=8&om=1 |

I'm a bad boy. I sold Gina today. No more Ducati ST3. But the buyer promised to be gentle. And to lube her carefully and often. Sniff, sniff, Gina................. |

Borrowedbike. That's about our regular route for part of the SPLASH ride, for us northerners. I imagine you've found out already, being a bit late getting a reply from anyone else here, but its all a great route. Bumpy to the north of St Helens until Randall, then more or less straight roads after that. Glad to have you joining the group. Hope to see you at SPLASH. Forgive the tardy reply. Everyone is out riding, I think. Except me. Busy gardening. Damn. |

Ah yes. There are worse ways to spend a weekend than gardening. Lurk well, Pete, and get home soon and safe. And sorry to see Gina leaving the clan, Steve. I would like to have offered her a home but my own collection is suffering rust and neglect so I hope she'll be happy. |

Gonna pick up my new (old) ride Friday in Wenatchee Warshington. I will be back on a M2L, thanks to Badweb Classifieds. My old M2L was easy to understand, low maintenance (if that can be said for a Buell), relatively dependable (if that can be said for a Buell) and it fit me. So now I have another. SPLASH WEEK 2007 is still on! |

Jimmy, I was sorting out the M-2 parts and realized you did not get the front and rear mounts for the race pipe. Need your address to send them off to you. |
