Where to Start

It all began with such a simple idea, lets meet downtown Seattle, take a ride then party at the Vikings house at the end.
The first leg pete lost the rear end pulling onto I-90 and almost went down, this was about 2 minutes into the ride.
Then Erik and Jay stayed back with me the Enfield ain't even as close to as fast as the Triumphs.
I was so slow they stopped to pee and then caught right back up to me.
Then we stop and Erik makes a road repair to my bike (zipp tied the blinker back on).

Then we stop in En Cellum
I needed to check my oil they needed gas.
At this point I walk in to get oil and a Harley guy says "is that your Royal Enfield?" "They are the Harley Davidson of India", I dead pan "yeah well they are the piece of shit of Washington".
Then we find out everyone else is across town and Pete u-turned into the side of a Suv, Triumph 1 Suv 0. except a couple of bangs to the Triumph was all good.
We all go to leave go 4 blocks and stop no Erik or Pete, his footpeg came off.
The rest of us go back
Then when I fire up to leave again bam blown fuse, the next hour was spent tracing down a short.
This time no one stayed back with me too slow, I made it up the Wenacthee pass, was coming down and pffft, bottom end seized up.
I coasted down for 2 miles then stopped.
I knew they would send someone back for me, I just didn't know it would be Sam.
The man is one with his bike but nutty and funny as hell, I looked over his shoulder once saw 120mph down the pass and decided I would do better to close my eyes.

From there I went 2up with Brad who was on a borrowed bike.
Not the most ideal conditions.
We went back and hid my Enfield.
then time for Stevens Pass
75 and sunny to 45 and rain.
That sucked.

The only highlight of that leg of the ride was the girl fight at the gas station in Goldbar.
At that point Brad and I both being from Bothell decided to split for home, we had enough.

The consequence of this was no drunken debauchery at the vikings,
the upside I have my Triumph back thanks to Jay, and a 300 lb boat anchor Enfield in the garage, also thanks to Jay. he is hard core and drove me out to pick it up Sunday morning even after being up till 3 drinking.
These guys are the best
