Well, say 'goodbye' to the best riding summer the PNW has seen since 2005. We might get one more short-shot of sunshine once the looming rainstorms pass next week, so I'm gonna keep the bikes at-the-ready a bit longer. I hope next summer is a repeat of this summer, and I hope the following summer is a three-peat!

Amen to that! Summer started late but was incredible. Then, last week rain hit and does not look like it is letting up for the rest of the month. A little transition would have been nice!

But, I was out driving today (yes, in my cage) and, despite the deluge, saw a guy riding another Warrior here in Bellingham, WA.

Hard core cuz it was really coming down today. Not the usual NW misting that you can deal with but real rain that soaks you when you try to go get your mail.

If you are reading this, fellow Warrior rider, PM me or add me to your contact list so we can go for a ride when things dry up.

Welcome Silent, saw your thread on the new bike, sweet exhaust and a nice looking ride all around. Seems like you got a good price too! This place slows-down off-season and picks-up again in the spring. A few of us from PNW are always around the forums tho.

Looks like I need to join this group too! We need some more for the PNW!

I'm in Beaverton and anxious for this weather to warm up. I don't mind "cold and dry" but this is ridiculous! Bring on the snow or show me spring!
(Just don't get the snow when I am out riding - please)

Anyone planning on going to Hells Canyon Motorcycle Rally? They moved it to July now so we should have a better chance for clear weather!

I am from up further north too (Bellingham, WA) but wouldn't be opposed to heading for the border. It's about 4-5 hours for me to Portland.

I am always up for a ride. Washington, Oregon no matter. It would be great to run with some other warriors. It would be cool to meet members in person. Been wanting to since I first joined the forum. (best bike forum on the net)

Up for it too. Just watch out going through Everett, WA. Went through last Wednesday and the freezing fog made such a thick layer on my helmet visor I couldn't scrape a sight hole. Had to ride with the visor open in 24 degrees at 65mph. Froze the snort in my sinuses!

Anyone going to The One show in February?

+1!

I noticed a few guys out on bikes braving the cold (and fog) yesterday. I am missing riding, but my Warrior is up on a jack right now about half disassembled from winter mods!

Hopefully, I can get it back together and running before it warms up!

Any good powder coaters near Bellevue/Redmond? TT bars need some love.
