    Im in. Maybe all the Oregon riders can ride north, and all the Washington State riders, ride south and meet at Mt St Helens. Say G'day, take a few pictures, take in the views, and then turn around and head home?

    Hey a gathering sounds nice. Anyone interested in maybe meeting up at a rally or Stunt/Show somewhere. The Fall Daytona Bike Week or maybe an event by Jason Britton or Rickey Gadson?

    I could point out some fun areas. I'd especially like to do a camping trip!


    RVFR - when is that big bike thing you were talking about happening? I don't want to schedule it on the same weekend.

    The 20th, not that it matters a whole lot is Laguna Seca. I'm looking at the second weekend in July for what I have up my sleeve, Just so ya know it's a huge PNW gathering at the Wa. capitol campus for a photo shoot, looking to have over 300+ bikes. So maybe the first weekend in Aug? Second is location demographics, be nice if it had a good feel to it like a covered area BBQ tent or something, rest rooms etc. easy for all to get to. Windy ridge might work for those that just want to say Hi, but thats a wild ride for some, it might be a bit to much, just thinking maybe. Something up the gorge could be nice, maybe tie it in with Reg coming up? all something to brain storm on..LOL think this also has been thought up on a bigger scale, something along the lines of meeting in Redding?

    If the east coast is riding out tahaway then I think it should be a caravan. Meetup and ride most of the way out.

    I think that this almost has to be split up in a east coast, west coast, central US thingy.

    What about Reno, or SF, or Eureka, CA for a West Coast meet? Eureka might be cool on the coast.
