    Myself, Maddog, Olbill and several others are riding the annual Veterans Memorial Ride tomorrow come rain or shine. We'll be starting up in Vancouver WA fairgrounds then heading down the Verterans Highway (I-205) into Oregon to the Baldock rest area in Wilsonville. There having baked Salmon at the ceremonies. Will try and get pics to post.

    Have a great ride. Looking forward to the pix! Very limited riding here, only very important rides due to the gasoline shortage. Lines several hours long for gas.

    We all had a great time today and the weather was really nice. Was probably 66-68 but felt warm and I felt I could ride all day till dark.
    We had opening ceremonies at the Clark County Fairgrounds in Vancouver Wa then we rode down the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Highway. To the Baldock Rest area were they awarded medals a speech to all Vets then closing ceremonies. Was very nice. Myself and another friend were awarded a special Vietnam medal engraved with our name and each medal has its own serial number.

    Oh yea, had to throw in a pic of the bike
