NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Sounds like work doesn't know when they are sending me to San Antonio now so I am back in unless they decide to send me after all.

 

Great, another stocko-taco. That will be at least 3 of us.

 

Anybody gonna be headed to this epic event from the Bellevue/Redmond area or S/B on I5 from the Seattle area??

Is there a CB channel y'all can designate so we can "ride" it inbound in case we see others??

 

I think theres going to be a north seattle meet up beforehand

 

So I have tried to do a little updating to help a few people out.
Blue means coming from the north
Green means coming from the South.
Black means I didn't know off the top of my head where the hell you are coming from, and I am too lazy to figure it out right now.
Hopefully this can help a few people figure out for caravanning purposes who is coming from where.

 

Great! I'd love to have some really good pics of my truck. I don't know the first thing about posing it though...hopefully it won't be one where I'm laying on the side.

I'm driving 3 hours one way...

I'm a greenie!

Just got my

$90 Midland 75-822 40 Channel CB-Way Radio

I'm not sure where Matt is located; but maybe you Lake Stevens boys can make your way down 405 and we can catch up with Tim, Will, & Beavis in Bellevue somewhere. That would be a caravan of 7 Tacos + 1 FJ.

 

Blue da boo de da boo die

 

So are the notherners meeting up in Rich town...I mean bellevue then?

 

Put me as a maybe if the yota is ready. Might still be under the knife, but I will rush to finish!

 

E.g.

 

damn Moe!

 

Matt where are you coming from? I'm in Bothell, so I can drop down either side of the lake. Makes no difference to me. There just seems to be several people in Bellevue and the Lake Stevens guys probably don't care about 405 or I-5.

 

Happens more than I care to admit troy. The rear was out yesterday.

 

In north seattle, so bellevue isnt that bad, but im down for wherever

 

OK - we'll see what others think...

The ones afraid of being shown up by the stock Tacos:
GSPRunner (Joe) - not enough ground clearance to get over a twig
Haselfre (Brady) - wifey told him its wheelin or lovin
OutbackHack (Mike) - lost on the one way streets in seattle
MRJ (Bucky) - forgot how to drive a stick
Tinkertroy (Troy) - drinking gluten free beer in lynnwood
Netdep (Tim) - busy making t-shirts


The north end submeet is south of the 405/5 interchange by a few miles, that way nobody has to cross a bridge to get to the other side of the lake. It is also close to the freeway, with easy access off and back onto I5.
I personally will be going to the Belfair meeting spot and not pausing at the North End meeting spot as I have another stop to make on the way down.

EDIT:
If anybody has better info than me on here, feel free to correct me.

 

This seems reasonable to me.

 

Sounds like a plan to me, Kent it is and then on to Belfair. I'm bringing the girlfriend shotgun since she doesn't want to bring her Taco out to play.

 

Not even for all of us other boys at the meet??? You should tell her that it is more fun to share with all of us, and she should post pics of it up here. Being female, I hope hers is pink...
