    Mt. St. Helens Windy loop

    Just a few photos of our 2 day 800 mile loop to Cougar from Bellingham. (CT, Ronin)

    Not many quality photos, too busy gettin some turns. First shot is the Windy Ridge parking lot. Ronin's 79 KZ, and my trusty Kat.

      It was nice to save $80 on lodging. No tickets, just one flash from a park ranger in Mt Rainier.

                  Big T,

                  I failed to contact you, excuses being when and where to meet etc. We didn't arrive in Randle till about 4 due to a head on collision on a back road with only one way through, and a street fair traffic jam in Packwood.

                  Are you heading up this way to Curlew? It would be great to see those blue boots again.

                      CT,

                      I'm trying to go, but I'm really busy at work right now

                      So, I don't know if I can take Friday off until the last minute

                          Good Times With an Old Friend...

                          Sure was fun flogging the old dinosaurs with you, Mr. Turk.

                          My front tire is pretty much smoked.

                          We need to do that again.
