Years ago my SRC and I did an Iron Butt from Vegas to Portland. Did that one on a Ninja 250. Recently been considering doing something similar. Not necessarily for the sake of the Iron Butt, but I have family that moved up to Portland a few years ago and I haven't been to visit them yet. Figured it might be fun to have a "Surprise I'm here, where's Christmas dinner," thing.
When I was up there on the 250 it was during summer, and it was SUPER gorgeous. What's the weather like in the Pacific Northwest this time of year? Would a bike trip be ill-advised? I have heated gear, so temps aren't a huge concern. I'm more worried about ice or... that... what's that white stuff called again? You know, the fluffy stuff. Here in the Southwest we sometimes tell myths and legends about it...
