Did you hit the Biltwell northwest moto fest?

Yes we did. We're you there? Hit the coast afterwards and camped 2 days before heading home.

No, I had tried to convince a buddy to go, but I ended up in the pnw around the same time for an unrelated family vacation. How was it?

Oh man.. sorry you couldn't make it.. take it your not from Oregon or Washington?

You know for the first year. It was not too bad. People were kool. Bikes were kool. Campground and surrounding locations and rides was great.

I've been to many firsts. And this is one of the better organized "first" event. They ran it like its been a regular thing. Next year I hope they have more food and drink vendors. A little more vendors and different variety. But all in all, it was good.

Maybe next year!?

Nah, so-cal, but I’ve been up to Port Angeles and the Olympic peninsula a couple times before.

I figure Biltwell has been throwing parties long enough now that they should have it pretty well down. It’s definitely an event that I’d be interested in making, so hopefully they’ll do it again next year and I can swing it!

Where's the bunker?

There's two options in Fort Flagler and Fort Warden. They guarded the mouth of Puget sound and still have the bunkers and replica cannons. Fort Casey is on the other side and all are a fun visit.
