Yes they do! I went there last night and couldn't make it to the parts counter without a guy trying to conceive a child with me!

(The parts counter guys were pretty cool, though.)


Harley of Smokey Pt.- Newer store, nice people great stopping point while heading North on I-5.
Good to know. Everyone is posting really good info, but we'll be living north of Seattle, so anything in the North Sound area is good to know, too.


You will enjoy the San Juan island riding.
OMG.......that hadn't even occurred to me yet! Wow.....

Thanks guys, for all the useful info and for the "welcome home." As much as I love MOntana, being out here does feel like coming home. It's been 14 years, and things have changed, but the "vibe" of the place feels the same. I know you know what I'm talking about.

But I have a few questions:

What the hell is with all the traffic?! It was nowhere near this bad when I was out here in the '90s.

How the heck did you finally get some "light rail"? I thought that issue was political suicide.

Why did it snow in November? I'm leaving Montana for year-round riding, after all.

And why couldn't you guys keep the Sonics here?! I have great memories of going to games in the Gary Payton/Shawn Kemp era.

But, thanks for the new stadiums for the M's and Seahawks.

Man.....and seeing the alpenglow on the Cascades last night and beholding Rainier this morning...........dayum!!!!!!

Can't wait to come back and do some riding. (I have to go back to Montana for a month and finish my contract.)

I will PM you guys about rides and such. Thanks for the invites! The beer will be on me

This is one of the La Niña years, unfortunately, so we're going to get some snow from time to time. I still don't own a snow shovel, and refuse to buy one.

Traffic is tough, for sure. At least we can use the carpool lanes, and load first on the ferries, so it's not all bad. I try to never go into Seattle on a day that I can't ride.

I stopped in at Downtown Harley and it was really nice. Huge with a ton of bikes, gear and parts. We also went out to Levinworth (sp?) and that would be an awesome ride through the mountains to a town with a early euro atmosphere.
