I know it has been cold in these here parts lately but there is always next season. Lets talk about next years rides. Oregon 250 the first Sunday in April. Sonomafest 2003 is set for April 25- May 4. AMA superbike is on May 2-4. Splash 3rd weekend in July? World of Speed at the salt flats September 19-22. Donner? Lets get some more input from the rest of you. It's late off to bed. Mike | ||

Mike, don't forget the OR500, second Saturday in May, I think - and maybe an Eastern Oregon ride for 2003. Let me know when you will be back in Bend... MG | ||

I would love to start talking about next summers rides that are planned. I know all about SPLASH back from the old days, don't know anything about Oregon 250, OR500 and would love to know more! A ride down through Shaniko should be on the agenda too! Just did that a couple of weekends ago from Vancouver, wish it would have been warmer! Jim | ||

Bob,Deb,and Mike,you guys better be at WOS in sep or there will be trouble.I can use the support(Roc,too)I am in process of acquiring an Aerochager for the S-2 so will be running boosted next year.Looking for more than the 165 I ran this year.(It really sucked not having all my friends there to cheer me on).Heading out to East Troy tomorrow for a Team Elves award ceremony at the factory---woohoo!!!! | ||

Here are a few pics from the ride we took a couple of weeks ago to a little town in Oregon called Shaniko. Last time I was here back in 1997, the infamous Ferris Bueller was leading the way, back in the days when PAC/BOG was in its prime!      | ||

Jim: Great pix. Looks like you had a good time. The weather has been great this summer and fall, as your pictures show. Did anybody go to see the Rolling Stones at the Tacoma Dome last night? My boy went and I haven't heard from him since. It must have been a pretty good show, he’s usually here for dinner. | ||

Ray, We had a great time and yes, the summer and fall were awesome this year. Really looking forward to next spring and summer! Hopefuly we will be able to meet up and cut a groove sometime! Jim | ||

Anyone have anything powder coated in the PDX area? I'm thinking about doing some wheels. Thanks - Rocky | ||
| Ray_Maines |
No I haven't. Figure on about $75 per wheel plus new bearings plus labor to remove and install the new bearings. And the new tires, of course. If the wheels are already powder coated you might want to just paint them with a two part epoxy paint such as Dupont Imron. The old powder coat will protect the wheels and the new paint is cheaper, easier to apply and easier to color match whatever else you might already have on the bike. | ||

Jim, you've put on weight since i saw you last (not necessarily a bad thing), and i'm not sure i've ever seen you look more contented  hey Shel (i'm assuming that's you...), it's great to finally put a face to the name, since yer barely-good-for-anything-except-drinkin'-cold-beer-and givin'-lots-o'-lovin' ol' man has YET to send me the photo-CD he's been promising for MONTHS!!! Chris, didya get the e-mail i sent with the lodging info for SPLASH? have we locked into an '03 date yet? btw you blastards up there, it's raining down here! there, ya happy now??? FB | ||
| Pdxs3t |
Yes my friend, I have put on some weight since you last saw me. Happens when you find a great women like Shel and get stuck working behind a desk. You may just have to come back up here where it all began to pick that cd up! If interested, I have about 300,000 frequent flyers miles I need to use, I'll get ya a round trip ticket right to PDX. We all up here would love to see ya! Shel says hi right back at ya! Jim | ||

Lyle showed up today, he said the Stones were great! He put a new Two Brothers Racing muffler on his 2002 Speed Triple today. Tomorrow he'll get the ECM re-mapped and he will be seriously FAST! If you see a black and silver blur going by at something near the speed of sound with a high mount TBR titanium muffler, it's him. I'm warning you, don't get in his way. He's either a man on a mission or a rebel without a clue. Depends on who you ask, him or me.  | ||

Anybody catch the FMX this weekend at Memorial(PDX)? It was wicked cool!! They didn't have much room in there to work with. They had two 9-10' kickers on both sides of a landing pad with about a 40' gap between launch and landing. Those boys are something else!! | ||
