WetFest 2012 -- Sept 7-9

Yes! Find me when you show up

Hi Huzar as you are from Bellvue is it OK to pay 36 Canadian loonies per canadian loony ?

I'm not sure what being from Bellevue has to do with it... but no, I'm afraid all we accept as payment are greenbacks...

Can anyone comment on the Colockum Road route from Ellensburg to Wenatchee? And I think I'm also in the group paying cash when I arrive, I hope that's not a problem.

Rocky. Rocks, rocks, and rocks underneath the rocks. Hot, dry, dusty.
Other than that, good ride with great views. The only caution I woul have is that there has been a large fire burning in the Reecer Creek area that has caused some road closures. Don't know it they're still in effect. Other than that, should be open and good riding.
What, exactly, was it you wanted to know?

I'm planning taking the little 100 cc bike to Wenatchee from North Bend OR. I'm trying to avoid riding on mountain pass roads with fast traffic and Hwy 97 between Ell'sburg and Wenatchee seems a bit fast. Is Colockum passable for a 60's vintage trailbike?

Yes, with some care. Fun ride. When are you coming over?

So, you'll be leaving now?

Yes, I'll be a bit slow, but persistent.

I've bought a GPS (Garmin 60Cx) but damn if I can figure out how to use it..... I think my maps aren't unlocked? Anyhoo, I was going to post some routes for people, but that's not going to happen. So, I plan on leading a ride or three, if anybody wants to follow an old slow fat with poor riding skills. I've got a couple nice rides in mind.

Not sure I'm going to be able to ride by then. I may be out or I may show up in the motorhome.

Well, show up either way...... Wait a minute! "Not going to be able to ride"? Did I miss something?

990 is back in fighting shape agian. Got new knobs and ready to go.

I just loaned out my TE610 to a friend who's doing the WABDR run S-N starting tomorrow from Stevenson... so I may have to bring the WeeStrom

In, Paypal sent (sorry huzar forgot the screen name)

Hope you all have a great time! Can't make it this year.

That's a great area to ride and local stomping ground for Throttlethrill and a few others of us. I recognize all the pix.

Looks like work is going to prevent me from attending once again. Ya'll have fun.

Too bad you won't be there, Clif. See you at MAG this Thurs?

Work? On a weekend? Come on, Brian, you can make it out there...
