From Silverdale you have several choices. You could catch either the Bainbridge or Kingston ferry, and then join up with the gang on the east side of Puget Sound. Or, you could cross over the Hood Canal bridge and shoot up to Port Townsend and join up with me (and possibly SpyderJoe when we get off the ferry), and ride up Whidbey Island. Looking at the fall sailing schedule, I think I'll try to make the 8:00am ferry.
Hello SequiMike I have been checking in on here to try and figure out first of all how to use this forum stuff and second to try and follow what's going on. anyway I was confused myself on what ferries there all talking about but it sounds like you will be the one on the port townsand run over to coupville. so i will keep an eye on your post here to see if your schedule stays the same for the 08:00 ferry i think that puts you over here on whidbey about 08:30 I think let me know if i'm wrong i don't know the travel times from there. I hope some other riders join you on that side and ride over with you. hope to meet you for the ride.

Sounds good, Joe. My friend, Alan, may join us on his Goldwing, and I met another fellow here in Sequim who has an RT and is talking about making the trip too, although I'm not sure he will be taking the early ferry. Jack (the fellow with the green CanAm) talked about maybe coming up to Port Townsend too, but my guess is he'll take the Kingston ferry and meet up with the gang for breakfast.
PT ferry takes 35 minutes so, barring really bad weather, sickness, etc., I should be disembarking around 8:35. If anything comes up that I can't make it, I'll PM you a quick note.

Looking Great!
By my latest and totally non-scientific methods, we are looking at 18 (possibly 19), putting us right on the brink of making the goal.
Thanks to everyone for responding and joining in on this great ryde. We are less than 3 weeks away!

Enjoyed meeting you and seeing your bike at the road test the other day. Are you going to be hawking your "new and improved" brake pedal at the Oyster Run? Sure looked nice.
My wife and I will be joining from Oak Harbor and I'll show everyone my new brake pedal. Jerry

I'd love to have another CanAm riding with me but it sounds like you'll be going in the other direction. This is the route I plan to take -

Spyder Ryder since February 2012
I LOVE MY SPYDER!! I am asked all the time about my spyder. Got it at Lifestyles Honda of Mount Vernon! Awesome people.I will be attending the Oyster Run 2012 in Anacortes staying at a camp ground in Deception Pass State Park! Since I work on a time line in my day job, I perfer to get up and go without regard to a schedule. However, it may be possible to catch up with other Spyer Ryders along the way. I would so love to compare notes with other Spyder Ryders too. And... I do enjoy a cinnamon roll and coffee too.

Oyster Run 2012
Hey Joe, as promised, we will have atleast 8 Spyders and 12 members of the Spyder Ryder of America - Columbia River Chapter joining you Sunday. This includes our furthest member to the north of us, Spyderman051 (Steve) from Pacific, WA. So, what is the count you now have joining you? Our plan is to come up Saturday and stay in La Conner that night and meet everyone Sunday morning for the Oyster Run.

All Set For Breakfast
I called the Calico Cupboard in La Conner today to give them a heads up on the 30+ Spyder Owners that will be arriving Sunday morning around 7:30 AM. They are expecting us, as they know about the Oyster Run all too well.
All I can say is, we have come a long way since the 6 of us surrounded one table way back when...

Mike I think I will join you. I have never been on Whidbey Island. I have the green can-am. You catching a 8am ferry from Port Townsend? I will meet you at the ferry terminal and catch the ferry over with you. Sound good?

Sounds good, Jack. Whidbey Island is a very pleasant ride, and we might pick up Joe, and perhaps another, on the other side. I made an on-line reservation for my bike (for the 8am sailing). You might consider that, although bikes "almost always" get on.

Lety and Ricardo are going, we can't wait to see you guys again!
Looking forward to see you guys there, we will see you in Smokey point at 6:45am
