Each year we have a gathering here in the Pacific North West called sport bike -sport touring northwest. It goes for four days and has everything from demo rides featuring diferent manufacturers. This year it wasBMW and Ducati. In the past we have had Triumph andAprilia as well. We get to ride some of the best roads in the western US and there are a ton of seminars. This year Nick Ienatch, author of "The Pace" put on several different riding seminars. He also went up to Mary Hill Loop road and put on a clinic. Mary Hill Loop is normaly closed to traffic and only open to events like this. It's a couple of miles of twisties and excellent pavement.
I put together a Photo Story video with a bunch of pictures from a couple of our rides. It's about 35 MB and eight minutes of your life you'll never get back . ALso you'll need Windows Media play 10 or better. But It's pretty cool. Oh there is a sound track too. so Enjoy!

Yes it was a great weekend. This is my second year and my girlfriends 4th year. She was supposed to put on a womens riding clinic, but somehow the schedule got messed up and it never happened. That's her VFR in the pictures. It just turned 67,000 miles! Yes she rides a lot! [sm=hail.gif]
