Jim - Did you obtain a copy of any of the books?
If not, I have a copy of the Chapman book that you are welcome to. It's all there but the cover is loose from the book sitting open too long. The catch is that you have to drive over here to Woodinville to get it.
Orcas huh? I have a fond memory of a girlfriend taking me for a rapid ride up Mount Constitution in about 1982.
Jerry, Sorry for the slow reply. It got lost in the shuffle of life.
I'd love to come to Woodinville to get the book, but living on Orcas for a dozen years makes one kind of provincial. All the way to Woodinville?
Of course COVID-19 has certainly changed things for us. We haven't been off island in over a year for anything other than medical appointments. I will keep it in mind though. I'd love to see your build.
I may or may not have ever had spirited runs up the mountain. My wife's electric Kia Soul is a hoot. Gobs of torque, low center of gravity, and powerful regenerative braking, all make a nimble package for a tightly twisting mountain road. Not that I would ever find that out of course.
