I'd rather save the bucks and see the scenery, but since I'm only one of two who will be in the vehicle, I should prolly not commit till he and I sit down and figure out how we want to get there. :D Especially with my history of getting horribly lost. :p

but I have driven around probably 90% of the time. It gets shorter everytime. :D
No doubt, it's not a long drive at all, it takes 1hr. from Seatac Airport, add whatever time it takes you to drive by the airport. :think:
Mike you started all this stuff, damn south enders always stirrin up trouble....

GO! SEAHAWKS!
We'll have room in our truck too. We usually meet at the Perfomance in Tacoma and convoy from there. Evilbob has been there before.

Just to meet up with people....I suggest the Truck scale near Wild Waves water park. It is an easy pull off and waite area and there is no trouble getting back on. There is even a porta-john :) It is easier thatn any other exit parking lot meeting type place.

Jr_B I think you could find that. :D

I've heard some rumors about that stop.
Appearently it was popular place for the 'alternative lifestyle' types to meet and go for 'nature walks' in the woods. You'll notice the woods are fenced off now.

:eek: I fear I have said to much....

:p

No I don't see myself making it....just trying to cut down on the mayhem of a caravan gathering. We have done it many times trraveling to motorcycle races. No delays....nothing to distract....just assemble and hit the road.

No food markets to get lunch....stations to gas up.....go to the bathroom (well the porta-john but most are to freaked to go that route :) ) ....not much to delay the departure once everyone has arrived. Not that anything like that ever happens :rolleyes: :D

Have fun everyone.....I may find my way out to spectate at the indoor BMXy thingy soon. I will bring my camera.

I rode 18 miles yesterday on the centenial trail and froze my rump :o: :) I swear it was sunny when I left.....

Was a great day for a fun ride at Green. We had psycho's with old skewl bikes, mushroom hunters, a desert rider who doesn't believe in front brakes, a couple of half gimped out hike a bikers, and a bonking photographer.
Was great riding with you all! Can't wait to see the pics. :)

My vacation is complete...all in one day. More fun than I could have ever expected. Is there a trail Skookum doesn't know? I've never been so wet and happy! The trails were great, the people were awesome. Hope to ride with meet up with some more of you great people over the next week.

Yea that was good today. Was nice meeting Vno for the first time, trails were awesome, sky was perfect, riders were cool, views excellent and the birds were a fun little unexpected break. The only thing not perfect was my front tire getting in a disagreement with a sapling on the outside of a corner I blew...... :think: my tire lost and over the bars I went... :eek: ...the nice bushes on plummers were kind enough to catch me with no other witnesses.......... so if nobody else saw it, it didn't really happen right. :D
