Oregon Fall 2011 Meet

Thought I'd get this kicked off for Brandon.

Oregon Fall 2011 Meet
Date: October 12, 2011
Time: 8:00pm
Location: Washington Square

Specifics:
Meet at the top floor of the Nordstroms parking garage on the side facing HWY 217. If it rains, one floor down from the top.

Directions:
From Lake Oswego, Tualatin, Wilsonville, Oregon City:
  • Take I5 North to HWY 217 North
  • Exit on Scholls Ferry
  • Make an immediate right turn into Washington Square
  • Follow drive until you see Nordstroms, the garage is between Nords and Sears, it's big, can't miss it

From NW Portland, N Portland, Hillsboro:
  • Take HWY 26 east
  • Exit HWY 217 South
  • Take Scholls Ferry Exit
  • Make an immediate left turn
  • Make a right just before the next set of lights once you cross HWY 217
  • Follow drive until you see Nordstroms, the garage is between Nords and Sears, it's big, can't miss it.

See you there, and this time I WILL make it!

^ History has shown that Wednesday has the best turn out for all the Oregon lazies.



But in all seriousness, everyone almost always has something going on during the weekend.

Yeah, it's almost like superstition really. Every time we have a Wednesday meet even people who thought they wouldn't make it are there. It's crazy. Most oregonians like late evening middle of the week meets. Strange, but true.

^^We've tried weekend meets in Oregon more times than I can count. The sad reality is that no one ever makes it on the weekend around here. Many of us have families and just can't get away on weekends and our honey-do lists lol.

You Seattle folks always have better showings than we do, I think we are just lazy. It must be a granola Oregon flaky thing. Shit, I am guilty of the Oregon laziness as well lol.

If you do plan on coming into Portland ever from WA hit us up in the Oregon chat and some of us might swing out to meet up with you and go on a skyline cruise or something. I know Brandon and I are always down for Skyline runs! lol

OK, It's in the CrackBerry so I will be there. Carrie does not have a schedule yet for October so it may be just 1 car. However, I'm looking forward to it.

No, that is the newer lot only two levels. We will be just down the road from that at the four level garage nestled between Nords and Sears

^ skyline run is basicly in the hills that seperate portland from bevearton and its about a 20 mile drive from hwy26 to cornelius Pass road.. its got alot of turns and a great views.. nice in the fall and spring and even better in the summer if there are no bike riders on it

No bikers? Seems like everyone who lost their job dusted off their bike and went riding every day this summer. They will be in great shape when they get that job at Burgerville.
