[clayton]

Hey guys and gals,how about a ride Saturday I hear the weather is going to be nice. I need to get out and put on some miles since the big service was performed. Maybe a ride down south or up here in the north country?
:stir:

If we were going to stay in this area I know of a grreat back way into Granite Falls . Also if we got started early even more further north of Granite Falls:dance:

I'm tempted too, but I have a wedding to go to Saturday evening. So getting up to WA and back could be a bit tricky.

Have fun, guys.

Well guy's,
Let's see a showing of interested hands. Then we can settle on a route and or meeting place,it's all good with sunshine.

How about a little trip over to glacier NP in Montana?

[clayton]

Little to far for a day ride. I have to be back in the evening on Saturday.

[sanjaun2]

Whatya got in mind? Granite falls, MT Baker? A loop over the mountains and another pass back over?

[clayton]

I was thinking about heading out the west side of Carnation valley to Monroe then back roads to Granite Falls. On to Arlington via back roads and then maybe if we have time onto Mt Baker. Lots of ways to alter trip depending on time.

Clayton,
Thanks for the excellent back roads tour. Quite a few roads I did not know existed. Returned home from 13 hours in the saddle to find a dock party going on at the marina. Food and beer just waiting for me. Gotta like that.. It was a great day except for the quarter inch gapping hole in my rear tire. Thank goodness for sticky worms and compressors.
