Riding the Cascade Loop

It was funny Evan got out his tricycle, and lined it up right next to the other bikes.  It’s hard to see him, but he’s at Rob’s left side.

We all met at April and Rob’s place.  My Dad was borrowing Tracy’s Kawasaki Vulcan 1600 cc big boy bike.  Well everyone else rode around in smaller and lighter bikes.  Matt, who is at the very left of the picture, had a Yamaha Radian, Rob had a Yamaha classic, and I was riding on a Triumph Speedmaster.

Here’s Matt watering the plants off the side of a cliff.

One of our rest stops.  These were actually bum rest stops.

Here’s Matt telling us a funny story. 

Here’s a picture of us on the way back home, after leaving Leavenworth.

We all had an awesome time; highway 20 is beautiful.  We stopped at Winthrop and ate some food.  We then rode on till we got to Chelan, and stayed the night in a small hotel.  At the hotel we went swimming for a while, and then walked around Chelan for a bit.  The next day we had breakfast at the apple cup cafe which was right across the street from our motel- it was delicious.  The ride out of Chelan was also very beautiful; we rode till we got to Leavenworth.  There we had some ice cream, and walked around.  We then rode on, till we got home.  This was an amazing trip, it was fun to do something with just the guys.  We’re definitely going to do this again next year.  Hopefully with more people.  David will be home off his mission by our next trip, and Lance should be out of school, so they should be able to come, along with whomever else we can scrounge up.  I’m really wanting to take my wife on a similar trip, since she really likes to ride motorcycles.  I never realized how fun a motorcycle could be.  This is way more fun than just going to and from work.
