A PNW'er meets Captain!

[mjn]

A good buddy of mine does a long ride each year. He does a fantastic job with photos and commentary. This year, he ran into the Captain... thought it was kinda cool..
Just shows how small this earth is..

This trip report is on a Pacific Northwest regional forum.

Take a look;

Mark, man thanks for the link... We talked to those two for about an hour... When they told us they were from Olympia Washington we only knew one persons name... TUFBUSA! (His real name is actually what we told them) and he said hell yeah I know Steven I ride with him....

What are the odds... We saw them a day or two later in Yellowstone too.....

Very very very cool...

That is an amazing coincidence AND a fun thread to read! Hey, MJN, if I were to retire in Corvalis, OR, would that qualify me to be a PNW guy? Doyle

No problem man!

You mean Brian said he knew Steven...but didn't mention ME???

I'm gonna have to kick is azz..

Brian is a great guy, and a "real" rider.. as is obvious by the mileage on his 12What you may not know is he has a ZX10 ('05, I think) with over 20K on it..

He attends my "Blaze thru Oregon" almost every year.

Like Keith said...what a small world!

Awsome, my daughter really likes the University and my wife just got back from ck'n it out and says I would really like the town (coffee shops, energy, etc). I think I'm gonna do a 2-3 day blitz up there on the Busa and recon it.

Brian is a regular on pnwriders. He is a true enthusiast, and rides more than darned near anyone I know. His trip threads are always a treat, as he takes tons of pics, (he doesn't miss a water shot.. LOL!) and writes a great story.

This is the guy that Rich (BABUSA) and I always joke about.. he ALWAYS looks like he's just stepped out of a band box.. His leathers seem to repel bugs, as does his bike. At the very least, when he starts out in the morning, he looks like he's just starting the ride.. frikkin drives me nutz!

I'll tell you this for certain.. he does not let any moss grow under his tires.. that sucker rides. That, and he is a super likeable guy. Definitely the kind of dude you want to have along on a ride.

A few shots of Brian on my annual ride this year;
