Vacation Trips and Local Runs.

For many years we have been limited to two week vacations for our trips.  This has severely limited the range of our travels by GoldWing.  The problem is not that we didn't have the earned vacation time, it was getting our employers to give it to us all at once.

The one exception to this was our trip to Mexico.  We spent two years getting our bosses coordinated to giving us a month off both at the same time.  Then at the last moment Kathy's boss wanted to back out.  We told him that we had money down and it was too late for that. 

A couple of local events we rarely miss are the Polar Bear Run on January 1st for the Trinity Road Riders Club, and the 250 and 500 mile runs of the Rose City Motorcycle Club. 

We do a lot of riding with the Rose City MC Club in Portland, Oregon.  They have an annual 250 mile, 500 mile, 1000 mile and Grand Tour that we participate in several of each year. The 250 and 500 are one day runs, the 1000 is a 2 day weekend run, and the Grand Tour goes to 15 checkpoints scattered across the western US and Canada.   Check them out at - Rose-City-MC.org
