We mentioned this as a postscript to the morning preview – today’s the day for the date-never-published Isle of Vashon vintage-motorcycle rally – then Christopher Boffoli headed over to Fauntleroy and caught some of the motorcyclists ready to head over via ferry:.

More photos later if we receive some from the events on Vashon (here’s how to share!).

Adding a couple of reader-submitted images. These are from “Todd”:

And thanks to “Scott”for the cameraphone image of this canine motorcycle enthusiast:

I saw everything from a 1914 Triumph, 1970s Yamaha RD 400s, to a purple 1975 Kawasaki 750 Triple. Moto Guzzis, Hondas, 1950’s Harleys, 1940s BSAs, you name it, it was on Vashon today.

Many thanks to the Ferry system and the residents of Vashon Island for dealing with us and our hobby.

So that’s what was going on! Just got back from an afternoon on Vashon with the family — was wondering about the huge numbers of bikers we saw heading back this way.
