These two guys rolled up while I stopped to take photos. They were riding from Kelso to Portland, then back again.

Cathay Pacific Grounds Its Airbus A350-1000s
For all those fans who think only #Boeing has issues with their aircraft these days:Airbus is taking a turn on the negative-publicity rollercoaster. Cathay Pacific, the flagship carrier for Hong Kong, announced it has grounded its fleet of Airbus A350-1000s for inspection after finding faulty engine components in 15 of 18 aircraft. According to a report today (Sept. 3) in online outlet Channel News Asia, Cathay Pacific Flight CX383 took off from Hong Kong for Zurich, Switzerland, yesterday, but turned back after the failure of an unspecified component of one of its Rolls-Royce Trent XWB-97 engines. The twin-aisle Airbus landed safely 75 minutes after takeoff, following two holding circuits to burn fuel.Reuters reported that a person familiar with the incident said the discrepancy involved a fuel nozzle. It is not clear whether the engine lost power. Cathay Pacific said in a statement that the flight was the “first of its type to suffer such failure on any A350 aircraft worldwide.”

"On May Creek Road Bridge"
The original bridge only had a single lane, so it was pretty cool to see a change.

Seeing Ian struggle with how the bike so readily stalls under power reminds me why I got rid of it. :( #motorcycle
I don't understand how #Honda can sell it in this state. >:(
I Took a Stock Honda CRF450RL Enduro Riding - It Didn't Go Well (EP.3)
The Honda CRF450RL is a nice dual sport for some highway, fire roads, and desert terrain. It has a fatal flaw - stalling - for enduro type riding or singletrack. Where is my KTM, Husqvarna or Beta when I need one - those bikes are so much better for true enduro riding.

Meanwhile, I rode for several miles on the shoulder of I-90 with a conglomeration of several unrelated groups of riders to get around one of the worst traffic jams I've seen, and nobody batted an eye. :P #motorcycle
Also, there was a husk of a burned-out car on the freeway near Snoqualmie Pass. :(
Got my first speeding ticket this morning. 🙃 #motorcycleI was doing 75 on a 55 MPH freeway and got caught by a speed trap. Gotta love holidays. 😢
