    You convince the million-plus people living here in the Seattle area to stop calling the East Side of Lake Washington, "The Eastside", and we'll change the thread title. :lol3

    Heck, at first I thought this was a Mercer Island-Bellevue type not wanting to give Redmond the status.

    Hell, I live down in Auburn and commute up to Kirkland, for that matter.

    If it weren't for how unendurably miserable the South County commute is, I'd go visit the Tacoma and South Sound guys.

    I know that I just met you, but I think that the condition of your "not so" High-Viz Aerostich might be the reason for your sucky commute in the South County. The rest of your neighbors just don't know what to think of you........

    What? You mean the Strom's chain ain't noisy enough to scare em off like those Harley pipes? :lol3

    Ok, you got me there. Yeah, it's been retired once already. Time to get it sent back for a 50,000 mile refit.

    No room to complain though. Without that Roadcrafter, I wouldn't have merely busted up my wrist. I'd probably have broken my elbow too. :thumb

    While ain't nothin' gonna get that thing clean. It needs a good inspection, wash & nikwax, and new armor tho.

    I'll try to make it occasionally as well. I need some replacement v-strom parts and I figure to pull them off your bike while you are inside drinking.:evil

    Rock on.

    I've been there a few times, really liked their sandwiches. I'm a sucker for corned beef though. :clap

    And I promise I'll wear my Olympia gear instead of the nasty Aerostich. :lol3

    I was wondering where you guys went. I have appointment Thursday but will probably swing by around 7:30. I might be in my cage but I will park it around back.
