Sorry to be to busy to stop and let everyone know what's going on in Port Townsend.The crazy weather makes my morning ride to work interesting.Fog and 54 degrees at 8:30am and 72-74 degrees running to the bank and Post office at 4:00pm keeps your selection of riding gear tuff.I find after having the shop for going on 26 years now,June,July and August,my customers are riding more and talking and hanging out less.This is a normal year.When we start getting close to the end of August they start showing up again worried they'll miss the "Isle of Vashon", or the "Oyster Run",I wish we could all have a better way to meet and get together.Maybe we could try just a coffee shop somewhere downtown Port Angeles or Port Townsend in a week or two.I would like to ride my Honda SL100 around Sequim some Sunday with other small Vintage bikes and see all the back roads I haven't been on in 30 years. We'll need a guild who knows the way around.And let's keep it vintage and small bikes only.A personal note,my family owned 38 acres from the 1920's until 1970's at Dungeness and Woodcock? road.There was a small farmhouse,and large barn on the property.If you stop and look beyond all the homes you can see the farm the way it was 40 years ago.I spent alot of day trips to the farm from 1960 until the sale of the property,and my Aunt and Uncle moved into a new house a little south of down town Sequim until there passing.Let's do somthing now,while we can!Honda Jim
