Per Jeff C.
As you will see the route is over 100 miles and includes some faster sections such as the Mountain Hwy. You will need to be comfortable with speeds of at least 50MPH. Unless your 50cc hauls ass this ride is probably not 50cc friendly. Please arrive at the meet up with at least a half tank of fuel. We will make one fuel stop in the town of Rainier. We will be making a brewery/cidery/bakery stop towards the end of the route and will end up the ride at Prairie Lanes, 202 E Yelm Ave, Yelm, WA 98597 for bowling. Afterwards we will make a plan for dinner and work our way to our house in Yelm, WA 98597. We will have a bonfire and Kevin will be playing some music for us throughout the evening. Everyone is encouraged to stay the night either at our house/property or at the hotel in town. Sunday we will have our meeting either at the house or maybe in town, we will leave that up to the group.

It’s Madness. No, not that Madness. But, come down to “Our House”, this Sunday, March 6, 2022 where only insanity in the Scooter cosmos prevails. A constellation of rides and events are emerging from the grey floatsam of the first part of the year. Enjoy a wee tipple of nefarious brew and maybe a greasy gastro accompaniment while practicing the art of social interaction as we emerge from our hibernation. New potential members welcome to attend. Remember, drown Russia with your drama…
