Quote: There has also been a suggestion for a ride to Portland. We ride to Portland on 4-26, stay the night and ride up to the PNW RAT meet in Chehalis on 4-27 (maybe hitch a ride with the Cascade group).
That would be every cool! I havent finalized the rout to Chehalis yet for this Spring's lunch, but it may be very similar to last years.
Quote: There are no dealer reqiurements for forming a rider club..it appears Triumph is willing to let everyone grass root their activities
To be a real RAT Pack reconized by Triumph, the Pack has to be sponsored by a dealer. Even when Cycle Mart closed down, the Olympia RAT still met and rode together but became unofficial until ToT opened (and the official pack is still in process with Triumph). However, there is absolutley nothing wrong about forming your own riding club.
Here is an idea, how about meeting at the Ram in Lacey and see how many fights we can get into with the HD poseurs.
