[Ducati] Trip round the country

[Harlyn Jenkins]

Today was a beautiful day here (low 60s, no wind!) - I just finished diving
for work to place an underwater camera.

Anyone who makes it up this way, let me know.  The aquarium really shouldn't
be missed.

Harlyn, in 2001 and 2002 I was on teams that ran in the Hood to Coast relay
run. What I saw of oregon was great but tough on the legs. Later I found out
that in 1975 my 860 was sold new in Portland. I do hope to get back someday
to ride what I ran. Great place when its not raining.
