Good weather in the Pacific NW!!! - Motorcycle-Journal Forums

NWFungi · 05-06-2007, 11:36 PM

Been getting some good miles on the bike this last week. Looks like a good week in the 70'sF for next week too! Went for a nice cruise with my new son-in-law today up the Columbia River gorge between Washington and Oregon state.

Hope all are having the weather to ride and keeping the shiny side up!

Looks like you had a great ride.
I have been fighting a bad cold for the last week and a half.
We gotta get together and make the Gorge ride sometime.

How beautiful was it this morning, absolutely blue sky, half moon hanging right there like you could reach up and grab it. Totally loving this weather. (Close to 80 riding home last night wasn't too bad either.)

Got a break in the weather here. Turned nice around 3 pm yesterday and held off on a change till now. Managed to put on 150 miles.

Suppose to be nice tomorrow and for the next few days.

blackie1491 · 05-09-2007, 10:40 PM

Nice today, in the 60's. High 60's tomorrow and then may hit 70's.

you guys get snow at all in winter in portland / vancouver / other vancouver?

CWolf · 05-11-2007, 01:13 PM

Just a dusting of snow this year. Seems like we just don't get the snow or ice storms like we did in the past. Still get our share of rain but it seems like we are getting more days of hot weather.
Maybe the up side of global warming ?

Woof!

Hi 80's down here in Utah...I need some really dark sunglasses, it's pretty bright out on the road.

Time for AC.

Went for a week long camping trip thru eastern Washington, weather was great!..(had the camper not the scoot

)
Iceman, Stayed in morton last night..just down the road from ya. Thinking of a 2 night C50 trip up there and do some bike camping.
Hmmm...80's in Utah? how do ya spell thrrrppp (sound of sticking tongue out)? Was in Utah last September, Loved it down there.
Looks like a nuther "decent" week for all us West coasters.

Crap, now I have to go out and unload the camp trailer

blackie1491 · 05-12-2007, 08:48 PM

Weather is nice got to ride with my youngest son and his friend, both on Street Glides. Looks like the next 3 or 4 days are good also.

St0nkingByte · 05-13-2007, 12:13 AM

I've gone sailing instead of riding this Saturday and last. Who knew 5mph could be so much fun!

Do I get some credit though for riding my bike to the marina today?

Ive always wanted to go /own a sail boat. I wonder if they make pontoons for the C50?

Cimco · 05-13-2007, 09:40 PM

I've always enjoyed anytime spent in the PNW...some of the best country around.

C'mon down to Utah Tony!

You can show me around this place.
