Sorry, you had a good picture. I thought if they weren't familiar with the area, they may know where Olympia is. I have driven exit 82 to 132 most days for years and I couldn't tell you that was 93rd St. To me it is the truck stop exit south of Tumwater.

For Reo54 and Choll, it didn't look like anyone directly answered your question about Exit 99. It is about 4 to 5 miles south of Olympia on I-5. Highway 16 is about exit 132. Exit numbers correspond to the miles from the Oregon border on I-5. So when you guys get on the freeway in Tacoma...

Aaron, stopped by your place Saturday after the Winlock parade. Sorry I missed you. Was driving the M54. Am still going to try to make your event, but may have to do the McChord Airshow, the situation is still in doubt. Also need to get the fuel filters changed on the 54. Have new ones...

Al, if you are up this way, stop by. Best to drop a note to make sure I am there, but you are welcome anytime. Hope to have the M54 going for this mission. Am down to fuel and oil and filter changes. Have the filters, just have not had the time. Want to make sure I do the fuel right so I...

Yup!

Couple of items here. For you guys coming down from the north and meeting in Tacoma. You could meet at the Tacoma Mall parking lot, but you could also pull off on the southbound 38th Street exit, there is a very wide shoulder there that you could form up on and not have to go all the way into...

Exit 99, the west side truck stop is probably more accessible and easier in and out than the east side. I buy fuel at the east side, since it is new and their prices are about as good as you will find. If you want an easy off and on of I-5 southbound, exit 101, Tumwater Blvd. is good as well...

Just a thought for those of you that might head down to Napavine from up north. Especially if there are a few of you. Jump on I-5 and stay in the right lane. Preferrably put a large truck in the rear. It actually feels safer when there are 3 lanes or more as there is plenty of passing room...

Yes sir! It is a must stop for me, whenever I go through Morton.

For Aaron in post #41. Depending on the number and size of vehicles, you might consider a couple of stops along the way, and there will probably be a few pulloffs to let other vehicles by. One good stop might be at Mossyrock dam. There is plenty of pulloff area there. I would suggest a...

Sounds like a winner. There are a couple of other less publicized events locally. The Olympic flight Museum, at the Oly airport, will be having a military show as a fund raiser on March 13, and I have done a display, lunch, and parade event for over 10 years on the 4th of July in Centralia...

Those are good points. There is a rail loading dock that I have eyed, but haven't gotten too close as it is on railroad property. I still have a bit of a brake issue to take care of on the 54. It appears that the left front wheel cylinder is leaking and a brake locks up once in awhile. Have...

we have thought about that, but it is a loading dock issue as I don't have ramps that go that high. have been pondering on doing a hitch set up like on the 900 series so that we could tow something with the smaller lunette ring.

Hello Aaron, Is your intent for an all M series event? I am in Centralia and could probably take part. It looks like fun. Current options for me would be M54, M715, M886, M38A1 and some other stuff. There are a couple of other guys around here that maybe would take part as well. Peter
