Dennis and I participated in the 2023 Tiddler tour of Vashon Island today, riding his RZ350s.





It's an island for real, so you gotta get up early and take the ferry (Dennis is still working on his morning coffee)





Not one, but TWO Allstate (Puch) twingles:



Yamahas? Yes, there were Yamahas:

this one's for Mark:



If you're lucky, you learn something once in awhile. I couldn't figure out why this Bultaco Metralla had three fuel taps (there were two Metrallas there, and the other had only one). I asked, and learned that a), two taps are for fuel and b) the third is for two stroke oil from that tank under the seat. When refueling, the rider draws the appropriate quantity of oil into the graduated cylinder with the plunger, then pushes the oil into the fuel tank through the third tap to mix with the fuel. Clever.

and it was a good ride, with plenty of two stroke smoke!
