    Hi, Jeff

    I'm still in and very North of you :)

    Check your PM. I'll flip a coin the day if leave but I think it's the 650 Seca for this ride!

    I just noticed this thread...
    Would have loved to make the trek, but will be tied up in Oregon this weekend.
    Now that I've noticed this part of the forum I'll monitor it a bit closer...
    Enjoy!

    I just joined up and would love to come to the meet. I might bring my son with. He had a XJ650 but sold it. Now has a XS 850. He is looking for a XJ 750 like mine.

    Rick_in_WA and I will be leaving the 'Couve at 10:00 Sunday am. I was able to trade shifts so no time constraints. My sin in law has my XJ so will ride the Beemer.

    No fair laughing at the color!

    See y'all soon,

    Loren

    A great time , a great place to meet up, great folks, and we need to do it again!

    I have the card in Vancouver, WA so anybody in S Oregon/N. California want to meet up sometime soon?

    Since I have the card in the PDX area anyone who was not able to make the ride please pm me and we'll see what time and where works to get together.

    I'll let Gamuru flesh out the details of the day but I do want to mention that he SEEMS to be a fairly normal guy. From what I was able to observe his head does NOT bob up and down like his avatar!!!!

    Thanks again Don for your perseverance in making today a success.

    It was very nice to meet everyone. The weather was great, the food was awesome. Thanks Eric for joining me on the ride down. Thanks Don and April for putting this together.

    Allow me to be the first to post pics.

    I agree we should do it again. (But maybe under happier circumstances next time?)

    To the Schmitt family: It was a privelege to sign the card and participate in this gathering in Bill's honor. God Bless all of you.

    Wow! What a day! April and I just got in. We've got a bunch-o-pictures between the two of us, so let me sort through them. I'll post something up in the morning... Hope that's okay.

    Thanks, all, for coming out. It was a tremendous amount of fun to meet all of you. We'll definitely have to do it again next year.
