]2eDeYe Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 I've noticed there are quite a few of us in the area. Any of you local guys want get together for a meet or cruise or something? What would be a good day? Where would be a good locale? I know a few spots that could work, but figured someone might know a few more. Quote Link to comment
DatDoug Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 Im not a so-called "Northend Guy" but im always up for a Datto meet. Dont really know that area too much so I wont comment on the place. Maybe some time mid February would be good. Lets say Sat. the 19th?? Quote Link to comment
datto510 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 I like this idea too! The 19th works for me as well. Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted January 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 19th sounds good to me... Now for a location, somewhere easy to get to from the freeway would be good I guess? Quote Link to comment
1lo620 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 be cool to do a Northern meet...but work Saturdays...but maybe get off in time. Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted January 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 I could do a Sunday... Quote Link to comment
Shonuff Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 im in. ill bring the goon. anybody got a boosted L series they wanna test against a boosted R series? :D Quote Link to comment
Logical1 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Great Idea! Sat/Sun Work for me and I think the Idea of a cruise would be awesome :) I love meets but we don't go on many cruise's, Driving my Datsun is the best part! (Even though its only a L motor :P ) I did a solo fun run out to lake Roesiger that was nice and curvy :cool: Quote Link to comment
1lo620 Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 this idea kind of die out a bit...is there any interest in doing this...?? Quote Link to comment
datto510 Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Awww man! I found out today that I am going to Alaska on the 15th! :poop: Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted February 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 We can still work on the date. I'm still down and was thinking we could meet up here... http://www1.co.snohomish.wa.us/departments/parks/park_information/park_directory/combination_parks/twin_rivers.htm Maybe do a cruise up 9 and hit a windy road or 2. :) Quote Link to comment
VintageRice Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Head up hwy 9 and eventually wind your way over to Chuckanut Dr. Thats a fun road worth the trip! It's in Bellingham. Then take old #2 back. Good times. Wish I could drive my datto!!!! :( Quote Link to comment
paisa13 Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 I'm still interested! I have another co worker that has a 620 That is down for a meet up also!! I have taken bike rides before to anacortes and around to whidbey island, take the ferry back to mukilteo! Few hours if driving but might be fun! There are parks all over in that area! Fort Casey?? Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted February 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Fort Casey?? ooooooo now your talking. :D We could head across Deception Pass and come back down across the Mukilteo Ferry. Good drive, I lived in Oak Harbor for 10 years, learned to drive on the Island and know the fun roads. Which is pretty much all the offshoots of Hwy 20 outside the bigger towns. :cool: Quote Link to comment
paisa13 Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 I used to go over there all the time but havent been over there in a while!! Bike rides were awesome though Quote Link to comment
Ken_B Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Im not a so-called "Northend Guy" but im always up for a Datto meet. Dont really know that area too much so I wont comment on the place. Same here, dunno if I wanna drive the 521 that far maybe if I have my KC and it is ready by then :blink: Quote Link to comment
cl72wagon Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 I would be up for that.... with or without the goon. But hopefully with it. :) Quote Link to comment

What: Polar Bear Cruise When: Saturday Feb 12 — 9 AM Where: Meet at the Home Depot off I-5 at exit 253 south of Salem Duration: About 70 miles on various types of roads (all paved) Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted February 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 But that's in Oregon Dave :D Quote Link to comment
Guest Rick-rat Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 I am going on the Polar bear on the 12th, and whatever you figure out for the next weekend, leaving bright and early on the 12th Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted February 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 For a Whidbey run I think the best meeting spot would be Holiday Market at the Hwy 20/I5 interchange. It moved but it still fairly easy to get to and has a decent parking lot. http://maps.google.com/maps/place?rls=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox&oe=UTF-8&rlz=1I7ADFA_en&um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=holiday+market+burlington&fb=1&gl=us&hq=holiday+market+burlington&hnear=holiday+market+burlington&cid=8215575765095888322 Anyone that wants to meet me first could meet up at Smokey Point rest area first. Ferry is every 1/2 hour and it costs a couple bucks. http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/ferries/fares/FaresDetail.aspx?tripdate=20110219&departingterm=5&arrivingterm=14 Dave, can you swing the 19th off? When is a good meet up time? 9 am too early? too late? Quote Link to comment
1lo620 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 dont let me hold back any plans, if I can get it off then I show up, if not, then have a good time. And to be honest I cant do ferries truck is to low. Got caught getting off at Edmonds a few summers ago, tore the shit out of my tranny cross member. And if weather is crap or questionalbe truck stays in garage, trials of having a convertable truck...So make plans and set times and I will go from there.... Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted February 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Alright gonna set the date for the 19th. We can always do another run next month :D Adding it to the calander: http://community.ratsun.net/calendar/2/event-210 ...hmm hope mine will get onto the ferry now that you mention it. Guess I will find out. :lol: Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted February 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 So it sounds like a few low riders are gonna be in attendance. Lower than me for sure, I think we will use Ft Casey as the turn around point. This way ther won';t be any issues with the ferries and bent chassis. :lol: I'm planning to take coast roads once we get on the island, for the views and the curves. We can shoot straight back up HWY 20 to head home. Do we want to do a picnic style, bring your own stuff type lunch at Ft Casey? I can grab a bag of burgers and dogs from costco...?

]2eDeYe Posted February 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 Bump... ...Wish Kow Korner was still around, we could have hit it up for lunch. http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=186581510607 There used to be a bomb burger place in Coupeville, but it looks like it's gone too... I am old :( Quote Link to comment
