2012 Hells Canyon/Wallowa Valley Gathering

I'm down for this....

Ladybug,
#1, You have me and my buddy down as "IN", but he is now bringing his dad also! Not sure what his dads name is, so we will call him Aaron's Dad... clever I know.
#2, Aaron and father are both in for all three options in the poll. they dont have an account on here (yet) so they cant vote. I wanted to let you know so people get an accurate count.
#3, Holy CRAP Im getting excited!. :) Anything you can do about the whole "Space/Time-Continuum" thing to speed this up? Would be appreciated, thanks in advance lady.... and thanks a bunch for coordinating this whole thing.

YIPPIE I'm down to only 6 days before we leave for Enterprise. We have a new rider in the family. Elklvrgirl's son got his endorsement this spring and he will ridng her KLR250 this year.

BUMP!


All you clowns saying how you aren't that good at riding are gonna learn something. IT DON"T MATTER! This event has everything from walking (usually because of broken bike but ?) to super high speed "Maxacceleration" gravel highway. Do not worry about ability. You will be happy.,..............

Sabrina, Show up dammit!

we will show up Asrvivor, just don't expect us to KEEP UP! we have heard about you and S1 and HellsAlien, can't fool us!

NOOOOOOOO! You must attend! I need some fun girls to ride with!

We know that We're just herding up early

LadyBug, I'm bringing another person and posted in the poll for bofus. We should have posted "in" on Sunday morning too but didn't. So double me plus two more on Sunday

I salvaged some wood from the neighbors when the power company trimmed their trees.
I will see how much I can get stuffed in the rig to add to the fire wood pile.

I sure hope the weather for this trip is better than what I rode thru today.

I left on Saturday morning to ride with my son who is home from the Marines.
He bought a 2012 HD sportster and was riding it to Minden Nebraska. We got as far as Rock Springs Wy before I had to turn back to be at work tomorrow. I woke up in Ontario Or this morning to wind and rain and rode the next 250 in wind-rain and snow. Life is a big adventure. Glad to be home.

Found it in Mapquest...thanks, but trying to figure out where it comes out...or is it a loop?

That's a secret! You'll have to just come along.

Bummed...I posted already that I can't attend. I'm willing to follow most roads but I do like to know where they come out!

He made it there safely Monday night.

We did have problems with the HD before we left though. Only 5 days after picking it up and 300 miles on it the voltage regulator went out. This was on Friday the day before we had to leave.

A big thanks to Owens Cycle in Yakima. Even though they didn't sell the bike, the service manager Paul, talked to the owner Dean and he ok'd taking the part off a new bike to get him on the road for our Saturday morning departure.

There are fun women attending Shelly! LB, Magoo, L2RideKatie, Elk, KRH,bskye et al.

I'm just on the fence -- haven't completely fallen to the "OUT" side.... and trust me... hanging on to the fence with all my strength! I love this gathering!!!

Oh you over rate me. Its the S1 super nutter gravel highway.
No Triumph this year - I'm arriving yuppie elitist beemer dude.

Common sense to all! Fun but safe folks.
Watch out for those 10' cows!...:eek1

For anyone who wants to, I am riding in from Asotin by dirt. Weds morning at 8-9 am Asotin gas station. Arriving in Clarkston tues eve and grabbing a motel if anyone wants to split costs.

Bring on the wind, rain, sun and.........................

I'm officially OFF the fence, but am not going to make it.

I've spent the last couple of months working on the road, and will use the time off scheduled to take my kids camping. Maybe next year.
