Coleville, WA - Saturday evening - Sidewalks all rolled up at 8:00 PM
Stormy weather - but we only got rained on a few times. Bikes don't care. in our gear, neither did we.
Our route pulled off my GPS. Seattle (lower left) to Twisp (1) by souther route. Twisp to Coleville (2) by northern route. Coleville to Republic (3) by southern route. Republic back to Twisp. Twisp to Seattle over the northern North Cascades Highway.

Twisp. Some people say motorcycling is all about the gear. Other - It's all about the food.
