    Oregon can eat a bag of dicks. Glad you guys are ok.
    (No offense to any board members that live there, but your state sucks)

    we are having some comm issues now so we were thinking of heading over to portland to try and figure something out. we got used to be able to chat while riding so now without the headsets it's a PIA. I bet we could have avoided the tix if we had the comm link. brian picked up a couple midland 2 ways with a headset to give them a try. so far we get mostly static. anyone close to us with a comm set we could borrow and ship back to you in a week? c'mon... I'm good for it...

    actually, if we can find a dealer with scala or some such that is willing to match an online price, we'd pick them up today. anyone know a good place near portland?

    UPDATE:

    The adventures of Reg71 and SLOVFR continue.

    Reg said they rode from "The Dalles" around the Columbia River Gorge, stopped at the Crown of the Columbia River Gorge, then onto Portland, OR. He said they were too worn out to make the Mt Baker run. They went thru St Helens and rode with JohnnyB & VFRShorty, and other folks, and now ended up at R.W.'s house in Fort Orchard, WA.

I really wish I would have remembered that you lived near Olympia cause we got stuck in the I5 parking lot there for about one hour... Man! Is your traffic like that every day? I have never seen that much traffic on a Sunday... Well, lemme see if I can scrounge up another pic or two...

    Made it to RWs

    [​IMG]

    We made it to RWs last night and arrived with an appetite. After about an hour of stop and go in Olympia we were ready to knaw on bark... Lucky for us he had been shopping for fresh seafood (probably pretty easy to get considering where he lives is surrounded by water) Anyway, he fixed up some shrimp and oyster sandwiches that were yum yum. For God's sake whatever you do, just eat it with the mayo or you'll offend his delicate sensibilities!)
