Touratech and Washougal, Washington

We left our camp north of Seattle, and rode into the city.  Our only stop of the day was to visit the US headquarters of Touratech, which is the very large supplier of parts for Adventure motorcycling.

They have everything your could think of for our type of expedition, and we needed a few parts and stuff for our bikes.

What blew us away was the absolute awesome way we were treated by Matt from Touratech.  He gave us full run of their shop to work on the bikes, and ran back and forth getting parts for us.  When it was time to settle up, he gave us an really fair deal, and threw in some free t-shirts and stickers.  In other words, he went above and beyond what he needed to and provided incredible customer service.

We have quite a bit of Touratech gear with us on this trip, and dealing with Matt reinforced that not only do they make great products, but they stand behind them as well.  Thanks Matt.

After leaving Touratech, we rode about 300km to Washougal, Washington (across the river from Portland), where we met up with our friends Jason and Don, and had a wonderful supper.

We're sleeping in Jason's garage tonight (it's warmer than outside, and dry).
