Today the guys got me up before 6:00 AM.  Ugh.  Travis led the way with his monster 2300 cc Triumph Rocket III (see many pix because he customized it himself; a friend did the graphic design with a sharpie; he put clear coat over it).

It was spitting rain and the streets were wet; not a fun ride South on I-5.  For me it was white knuckle time.  We made it safely down to US 101 (the Pacific Coast Hwy) at the mouth of the mighty Columbia River in Astoria, OR.  Lunch there with Travis was fun (he’s the tall young guy); then he rode back 200 miles to Seattle and we headed South on the PCH.  The mile-long bridge is over the Columbia into Astoria.  The pix of the three bikes is before we crossed.  The rest of the pix are self-explanatory.

Our thanks to Travis for his great hospitality; we had a ball in Seattle.
