noob from buckley wa

Post by dave k »

hi my name Dave from Buckley Wa. which is about 50 miles west of Mt. rainier, I ride a 2009 fjr which I bought new in 2010
and now 81,000 miles on now and love it. I got too this forum thru the link Extrememarine posted on fjrforum about Petey,
how sad, having read all the post makes me think I known him, met him once at ruben run 2015 I think, talked briefly
about his new BMW real easy guy to talk to so here I am. I don't post much but I do like to read the posts of others
so I guess that's about it.

Welcome, I just moved south from Puyallup. Missing my favorite ride, 410 thru Enumclaw up towards the pass, turn right on 123 and then right on 12 and into Packwood where the herd of elk hangs out, and then 7 back home.

A belated welcome from Bonney Lake, WA (spitting distance from Buckley for those that don't know). I ride one of those beautiful Black Cherry 07 FJR's virtually every day around here which explains why it has 130,000 miles on it. See you around.....
