You have captured the essence of this time of year. The choice melody of music and the getting out on a early evening adventure. Thanks Mike for sharing and RIDE SAFE OUT THERE!
I look forward to your Vlogmas vids every morning Tony! If you ever come to Tucson, AZ let me know! We have the first Honda dealership in the USA right here. And up until 3 years ago Helen Mussleman, the original owner, worked there every day! But sadly, she passed and 90 something. Anyway, love the series!
Very cool seeing so many vintage bikes, although a little sad also, knowing that bikes put on static display aren’t ridden anymore…The black 1979 Triumph Bonneville Special is close to my heart. I had one that I purchased new in 1983! It had been sitting in a dealer showroom for three plus years, so I got a good deal on it. Loved that bike! Black with gold pinstripes, and Lester Mags!
I see that in PNW cities have built new tramway lines . I tought that you were going inside the H-D stealership ! 😂 I wish you a happy retirement and many bike projects. Season greetings from the dark and wet Belgium.
Wow, some fantastic classics on the shelf. I couldn't believe the brand new Silver Jubilee Bonneville, T140D Special and Triumph X75 Hurricane! Looking forward to see the RE showroom and hope you also pop in to the Harley and Buell shops. Cheers.
Only a brief shot of Maisie, she’s the star of your vlogmas 👍 What a showroom, great that you such entertainment, all those triumphs to ogle at 👀 Great vid Mike, hope your not getting bored 😂
I bought my first helmet in the early 90's from Bob's when they were in their previous location downtown Beaverton, on Watson blvd? I seem to remember the vintage bikes on display there as well, and still do have some I believe.
I have a full gore tex laminated suit. Cost a bomb. Good, but I would.nt buy another. Water gets in somewhere. I would get a non goretex laminated though. I prefer my 80 quid wax cotton with no velcro. Just proper brass poppers and and neck buckle. Laminated is good as it doesn't soak water up and dries quick but not warm.
Hi Glenn, many thanks. Yes, we have been in the States for 27 years after moving here in 1997! And 26 years in the Portland area. It’s gone so quickly!
Can't believe how many and how big the dealerships are there. Glad to see there is that much of a market there.
That top shelf is the 8th wonder of the world. Fantastic.
Great vlog. That is one awesome collection of vintage bikes mate.
I'm enjoying the Vlogmas series, Mike!

Wow Mike, talk about top shelf motorcycles!!!
That’s a great showroom to have a wander around. The top shelf is something else. Thanks for showing it to us.

Lovely set of videos Mike, I am enjoying them. If you don’t mind me asking - how long have you been in Portland, I guess it’s quite a long time.

Nice to know. Thanks Mike,
