    104 degrees when we got to Republic, as I recall.
    Can't remember what year that was.
    Sounds like a good loop, what 650 + miles?
    I looked it up in my GS650g file and we did the PNW traveling rally to Republic in 2011. 2010 we were at your place Vince and rode around Mt. St. Helens. Both were good times.

      I hope it's not permanently leaning to the right after I rode in the sidecar..... The pulling to the right on acceleration and the left on braking was a bit scary....

        Man! I've got a couple of years to get a bike with a sidecar. My kid is 1 and I'd love to have a sidecar to take her out in once she's big enough.

          My daughter is the reason I built the sidecar rig! I put it together just before she turned two, she's four now and still loves riding in it!

                Not something you see around the NW. I've seen one pass through town with Canadian plates about 10 years ago.

                Katman's not too far away, visited him a couple of times, but otherwise, no Kat sightings.
                GS\'s since 1982: 55OMZ, 550ES, 750ET, (2) 1100ET\'s, 1100S, 1150ES. Current ride is an 83 Katana. Wifes bike is an 84 GS 1150ES

                  That's quite sad indeed! There's usually at least two or three on the Saturday morning rides and every now and then we'll have a bunch turn up.

                  Once mine's done it will replace the 450 for the Saturday morning rides, can't wait!

                    Got out on the 750 for a quick spin before dinner and catch a tag in the riding game....I say this every time I ride my 750....I really need to ride this bike more often. Such a good running bike...sounds great with the exhaust and it handles extremely well!

                      Rode to the Ashokan Reservoir. Its 12 miles long and 1 mile wide. It is one of several reservoirs created to provide water to New York City. Its deepest point is 190 feet down and it holds 122.9 billon gallons. Construction started in 1907 and it was filled between 1912 and 1914. About 2000 residents were displaced and had to relocate along with their homes and businesses'. Those people were not very happy.

                        Visited the char'd remains of my favorite bridge...





                        So racked about 100 miles on the 250 and found another covered bridge relatively close to me(5 miles from my house)... Much smaller...


                        After getting tired of the GT250 I blasted out the old and cheap "Non-Runner" GS650G
                        They looks so good together...



                        Trying to get as much time in as I can... Winter is upon us. Maybe...

                          That is sad to see that bridge burned to a crisp Jedz. Looks like it was an adventurous crossing.

                              Went for a ride tonight wearing exactly none of the gear. Sneakers, shorts, t shirt, and no helmet.. and under the influence. Rode around town as the lifeblood of a wretched summer slips away. I'm happy to see it go, sad at small amount of riding done on my real bike.
