Hi Club Members.Jim Minish here.Great web site!This month marks 40 years for me endorsed for motorcycle.When I took my test in the First National Bank parking lot,June 1972, it was on a 1970 Honda SL100.I was told to go thru the gears towards the cone and go around it and come back thru the gears.The bike did all 5 gears to the cone! A guy on a Honda CB750 could only do one gear to the cone and got mad at the instructor giving the test.He finally swore at him and left without his new licence.The SL100 and I got score of 100.I just found the same model and color and have been riding around Port Townsend now for a few weeks.I also own a 1968 CL90 and a 1995 BMW R1100GS.I ride to work on a motorcycle every day,rain or shine.I also get to play with motorcycles every day at my job,Port Townsend Honda.Having the shop for the last 25 years,I new we deserved our own club out here on the peninsula,and now it's up and running in less than 4 months!Great job!

To get my motorcycle endorsement in 1968 in Missouri I had to pay few dollars. No test. I didn't have to take a skill test until I moved to Washington in 1976 when I had to go through the gears and stop on a line.
