wild wednesday ride

[Frank Fanto]

I found a '93 with 24k miles for sale, right in my price range. It needs a little TLC, but seems solid. Are there any known issues I should be aware of on the earlier models?? Thanks for the help.

A great ride indeed, in your hood almost. Take the 101 North, after Shelton, before the Mini Casino, take a left on Skokomish Valley Road (Not Skok River road, you went too far) The Valley road is incredible itself, then fork right onto SFR 23 (marked) and follow the signs to the steel bridge. If you dont like heights, dont stop on the bridge, it will make you dizzy. There is another railroad bridge up there that I used to go to in my youth, in the same vicinity, but I have not found it yet, I have heard it is no longer accessible. IMHO you need to be careful in the Shelton area, the good ole' boy factor combined with a high survivalist and pot grower population, makes this a rough area. Just mind your own, and don't talk to strangers, and you should be fine. And most 4 whell vehicles cant keep up with a bike on dirt roads, and certainly cant take a trail as well... --- Janna Nichols wrote:
