August 7th 2011
So this is the 3rd year of this ride, over 200 hundred street bikes showed up last year and we are expecting more this year. Best ride i have ever been on! Saw three Buells not including my brother and I's firebolts. Hoping to see more Buells this year.
We will meet at the Sonic parking lot @ 7380 NE Butler St. Hillsboro OR. Leaving at 12PM so get there early to meet new people and ride next to me :) More info on the flier below. PM or comment below for questions.

Wish I could be there man, but the 7th is mah birthday and a 16 hour round trip to OR and back + the ride and my ass would jump off and hitchhike home.


@Octo: Dont turn this into a flame fest, Bro. That shot is from an elevated position and you have no idea how fast they were going.

Hey... that ride is right through my neck of the woods.

Thumpin1203 is an Oregonian too?

onelogue
08-03-2011, 12:55 PM
Yup Thumpin1203 lives on the coast so he is riding in to go on this ride.

NwRider you should come too. Ride next to Tad (thumpin) and I.

Yep.. I'm on the coast, warrenton to be exact. How about you NwRider?

NwRider
08-03-2011, 01:38 PM
I am in Beaverton. Some good roads your direction Thumpin.

Yea.. I think I could make it. I had tentative plans to have my bike in pieces at my friends shop Saturday but that is kind of up in the air right now. I will find out for sure tonight and let you guys know.

We should meet up before hand and roll in together making some noise. Only 3 so far?

-Myself (firebolt)
-my brother (firebolt)
-Thumpin1203 (lightning SCG)
-my buddy Jeff (lightning SS)
-and yourself .
-Another guy with his firebolt might make it if he gets his frame back from paint.

For those that want to meet up with me and my friends early we are meeting off the Sylvan exit right off highway 26 @ the Chevron station. By 10am. We will be heading to the memorial ride meet up spot as a group by 10:30-10:45.
PM with questions.

FYI, this is a memorial ride so people tie white bandana's around there belt loop. Bring one for yourself if you don't think it is too "gangster". Had a couple people last year curious to why everyone had white bandanas. ;)

Sounds good. Top-o-the hill 10am... think there is a Starbucks right there. Sounds like you need a Tuber in the mix. [up] I should be able to make it. I will confirm tonight.

Sylvan chevron... I know right where thats at! :D... Are you coming up over skyline via rocky point or Cornelius pass, RJ? I'm thinking that route to miss Hwy 26 morning traffic..plus, I love the views!)

NwRider
08-03-2011, 09:31 PM
Thats one of my evening rides Tad. I love Skyline between Rocky Point and Cornelius. Traffic won't be bad on Saturday but don't let that be a reason to not ride Skyline on the way in. ;) I would be game for a Skyline or Bull Mtn/Bald Peak run after. End of the memorial ride is close to Bald Peak.


Oh yea... Saturday plans fell through... so count me in!

NwRider, not sure if you meant Sunday (the 7th) cause that when the ride is.

Yup Skyline is beautiful ride but i live right next to the Sylvan exit not so i wont get the chance to hop on Skyline or rocky point.

Way excited for this ride!!!!!

NwRider

Wow... obviously I don't know how to read a calender. But I can make it Sunday.
