186. Address is 132 128th St. SW. Phone is (425) 355-2210. Gather
round Cats and have a great breakfast. The "after breakfast
ride" will be a pre-ride of the Early Spring Fun Run. This
will be an all day ride as we won't get started until about 10 AM. Please
have a full gas tank, or at least nearly full. We will stop
somewhere on the ride for lunch. After all GWRRA also stands for
"Gold Wing Restaurant Review Association". I hope the weather
gods smile upon us; the forecast as this is being written is "rain ending
Saturday morning".

In Other News: The February Dinner Social had a
better turnout and, as you can see above, we are continuing the event.
Bud has had second thoughts about the 600 mile round trip for breakfast.
The latest information I have puts Bud and Sandy's move to Hayden, Idaho in the
late April to May time frame. That means Bud will be resigning as Chapter
Director SOON. That means we will need a new Chapter
Director soon. Any volunteers?
Sorry for the late
mailing; I had a hard time getting inspired. That's
All. RON
