I forgot about Mt St Helens. I think I might detour from PCH over to it before heading up to Seattle when I pass through on 9/22. Maybe early afternoon.

If you are in the area it is definitely worth taking time to visit. So I take it you are still on for SS? I still plan on going and may drive back with you. Only issue for me is when you drive up.

Yeah. If the timing looks like it will be too tight, max and I may switch to leaving LA on sunday instead of monday. I just expect that being a sunday, there will be alot of locals and travelers on PCH that day, which would cut out alot of the fun of it.

Looking at the map though, I'm thinking I will leave PCH at Rt 30 OR/WA border. I want to drive over the Astoria bridge on PCH, but I can just turn around and drive back.

If we get a place to stay at someone's house one night over the other, I think that it would push the LA leave date to match

Well I have conflicting plans now. I either go to Windy Ridge or I go to Windy Ridge.

I'm going to drive with you guys instead of ride with my bike friends, since group drives are rare for us and this has been planned longer.

Well guys hate to do it but looks like I'm out for this run. The car is at the dealership for issues with the new motor. I should find out today the results of their testing.

Thanks, Deminic

New motor will be ordered Monday morning due to failed compression on the rear rotor.
