Thinking of spring !

New fork seals, new rear tire, rebuilt water pump. I am hoping to get out on Saturday, maybe head up Derby to see how the snow is clearing. Anybody with me? We can scout some territory to see if it is ready for everyone to come for a ride.

I kind of forgot about Apple Blossom this weekend and next, but makes for a good reason to leave town, IMO .

Most likely be leaving in the afternoon some time as I have some stuff that needs to be finished in the morning. I will give you a ring well before I head out. Good luck for your daughter in the parade!

should we start throwing some dates out to see what will work best to include the most riders???? or maybe some dates that absolutely won't work for some??? get it narrowed down.

lets start with dates that wont work, the weekened of june 5th and 6th wont for me. there might be another one in june that wont work. i know i am prety open in may. ( i think) so lets start with maybe tring to find a day in may, thats more spring time then june anyway !

I'd say anytime after the 8th for legality purposes, but before will work too. Not having an endorsement hasn't stopped me yet.

May would be awesome cause it's close. I'm busy probably every saturday...but don't work around me, I'll try to work around you guys.

yip, may would definatly work better than june for me as well.

My plan is to get out and hit some roads this weekend to see how far out we can get before hitting snow. Once I can determine that, I will coordinate with some of the other local guys to work on setting a date in May for us all to get together. It has been super windy here the last couple of days which should be helping getting rid of the snow, that and the 82F we had a couple days ago.

ok, we are going to set the date for the 15th of may if it works for everyone. looks like it will be the same ride "W" just went on today. it is beutifull country up there. we will have to decide on a time and place to meet.

15th of May it is, so let us know who is coming and we can finalize plans. Really looking forward to sharing our great riding we have around here with everyone.

I would love to give a firm yes but...

Wife working that day and I'm watching the boy....I'm out. Take LOTS of pics.

Will Sunday the 16th work better for everyone? We want to make sure the most people possible can make it. Folks could even come in on Saturday and crash at my place if they want. I will even do a BBQ dinner, and we can meet here for breakfast in the morning. If I can get an early heads up, I will get all the food and feed everyone before heading out. So, let us know if the 16th is better, and who wants to come for food.

I'm in, either day works. "W", where was this proposed ride taking place? Did someone mention derby?

Sorry, neither day will work for me. Hope you get a good group together, sounds like a great time

If it's the 15th I'm 60% in
If it's the 16th I'm 85% in

*but really, do what you got to do then stick with the day you pick.

Yes, we actually came down Derby to head into Leavenworth for lunch. We started out heading up Swakane, and made our way west through Nahahum. Then headed up Mtn. Home over to Camas and down into Cashmere.

If having it on the 16th is better for you, we can definitely do that. Everyone else seems good with that, well except hodaka. But bump that 85% up to 100% and get on over here. You have a place to crash if you want to come over Saturday night.

big-jer ! you in. the 16th works for me.

That seems like a good route, pretty long too. It'll make for a good day.

95.5958589574% in for the 16th

No-can-do to the crashing over night before...but I can be there REALLY early.

Sounds good. Come in early enough and I'll make some grub for us. Anybody else that want to stop by too.
