It looks like we're meeting at the Jansen Beach Safeway at 5pm. It's well lit and we can grab some coffee to warm up a bit.

A couple pics from PIR last night. I would have had some nice video, but I didn't realize the SD card in my new dashcam was only 8 gigs and it was set to continuous loop. It did take a nice video of our ride home.

Yup, doing the break down and have little bro pull the sling trailer in and out of OR. Pain in the butt but that is what it is. Adds almost 1600 miles to my 3800 mile trip.
Thinking of a 1 PM lunch Saturday at Roakes for a burger or Coney, bring you calendars so we can plan some rides. I would like to repeat our Detroit Lake ride do your St Helen's ride, and go to the coast as a minimum. I'll also take a bunch of shorter putts.
I'll need to buy a new rear tire soon as mine has almost 12 k on it, another 3 or 4 should finish it off.
@SlingLow and @BryanL you need to find others to go with us, you surely most know other area riders. LB may go on his 6 cyl bike or follow in a car like last time. His wife's back just wont take long rides anymore.
With you two going up to BC you could get a bunch of miles in this summer.

Sounds good LC. I'll pull out for lunch Thursday but have been working 7 days a week to finish my remodel and logging projects before my trips to Sunriver and Sundre. If I can't get 'er done, I'll just have to resign myself to a little more work when I get back from Canada. @BryanL and I did meet up with 4 other riders on the 4th and I met another in town recently who was on his way to Oklahoma from Texas when I talked to him on the 3rd. He should be back in town sometime soon. There is also @slingo out in North Plains who was finishing up his turbo install on the 4th.
Another ride we can look at is up the north fork of the Lewis River on 503, then up Curly Creek Rd and down Wind River Hwy to Stevenson on the Columbia River for lunch, then down the gorge back home.
Have a safe trip up and I'll see you Thursday if your schedule holds.

No problem Glenn, I just figured out tomorrow is Thursday when I read this . Saturday I have a buddy coming to Vancouver to help me install 16 kitchen cabinets in exchange for me doing his year-end financials. Time to cash in some chits. I could do Sunday, or may have to check in by phone, but here are my current out-of-town dates:
July 19-22, Sunriver, OR, family reunion.
July 24-30, Sundre, Alberta, Canada, Sundre Slingfest. -
Need to talk to you or Bryan before you guys head up to BC. I want a set of his headlight covers.
Still going for a Saturday Roakes meeting because it was already posted. However might be able to meet again on Sunday for those that can not make the Saturday meeting. Would like to meet as many as I can, even if it means eating at Roakes twice in one week.

Yup, my posse was busy doing work (yuk bad word) stuff. No worries went for a really nice ride and scored some pastrys for tomorrow morning. Did get a call from @SlingLow and we are getting together for a ride to Tillamook on Tuesday. Any takers want to ride along?
As a side note just turned 12k and still have the stock rear tire. But going to order a BFGoodrichG-Force Comp 2 A/S 255 /45 R20 pretty soon so I can mount the rear fender.
