My best buddy was involved in a fatal accident decades ago on his bike. A small cadre of friends went to the site, all still in shock. It was a quite rural area, and we mutely gathered up a small pile of rocks, broken fiberglass & other debris. One of us found laying in the barrow pit his old m10. I didn't even know he had it, and the various responders overlooked it in their sweep picking up stuff a few days prior.
I'm convinced there is a legal way to carry per your intent as I researched a ton of state laws a mere 14 months ago for my own coast to coast journey.

Welcome to CarryConcealed.net
this last one is new to me but reputed to have a trip planner in it.

Your saddle bags and cases are considered the same as a car trunk. For those states that do not reconize your concealed carry permit but the handgun in one of the saddlebags unloaded and you should have no problem. A LEO does not automatically have the right to search your bike. He needs probably cause, a search warrant or your permission.

This thread has gotten me thinking about some of the other members I haven't seen in years. I was looking thru an old photo album and came across this photo. I look like I'm 12 in that photo.
If anybody knows, or knows how to get a hold of Mr. Stewart (I can't remember his first name.) (he was HT-1) (UDT-SEAL) I would love to say hi. He was one of the most outrageous instructors ever! He had so many stories, but I think most were true. He told us a whopper about getting his photo on the cover of one of the news magizines, (Time or Newsweek or something) he said a photographer took his photo holding the head of a dead VC. We were all like "Yeah Yeah uh-huh" the next day he brought in the magazine!
It was a collage of photo's to go with the lead story something like "should the US troops be in Laos or maybe Cambodia" or something like that. There he was, face painted, grinning ear to ear holding a head by the hair, on the cover of the magazine! He said he just came across the line and was heading back when a photographer showed up so he did the most outrageous thing he could think of. I'm pretty sure he got in deep poo poo for letting him get that photo, but who would have thought they would run that?
My mom took this picture of us at some party, I never noticed the 1000 yard stare before. I wonder what he did after the war, I never saw him again, I have tried some UDT SEAL forums but never got a reply. This is a very large forum so maybe someone here knows him. I do know some of the guys with a couple tours were getting recruited by the government to do super secret spy stuff about that time.
If anyone has the cover of that magazine I would love a copy of that too.
Maybe I should start a oldtimers thread.

Ok I will do one more OH MY GOD story.
I had a JG who was a skydiver before going to Coronado. He joined the Navy to be a fighter jocky but somehow got eliminated, the Navy wanted him to fly those big busses or something, he decided to go with us instead.
He was a physical fitness nut. He ran civilian marathons pretty often and was always running, we would be pounding beers and he would be running somewhere. He was also one of the smartest men I ever knew.
He joined a skydivers club that jumped out over the desert outside of San Diego. One day one of the guys asked if I heard what happened to Bauer?
He was jumping with the club and fouled his main chute, I guess he played around with it trying to get it to fully open a little too long, when he realized he was too low he didn't have time to cut away the main, so he pulled the reserve chute that quickly tangled with the main.
He hit the ground running, on the side of a steep hill, rolled to a stop and walked away!
After that I spent a little more time running myself.
I'm pretty sure he went to one of the 3 letter organizations in the mid 70s.

'Tis true - I've done MN to WA a number of times without a carry - no problems. But should you decide to carry remember, you can't take a firearm into a bar in WA...keep that in mind and keep it up on two and enjoy!!
PS...if you're looking for an overnight stay while in the Spokane, Cheney, WA area - let me know - got plenty of room out here and you are welcome.
