Nice. Definitely needs to be sent into Land Rover. I may have to go visit a friend in Seattle and take a drive up that road.

SloppyJoe,

Great pics.... Been up tinkam road a few times myself... albeit in a '69 series IIA. Gotta say though, I admire your taste in rigs... especially the 308 gts. Perhaps my favorite car ever. and the Ducatti 999S is awesome too, although Iprefer my Buell Cyclone.

Excellent pics SloppyJoe...

I have a question for you and 04BluDisco. I'm new to the Seattle/Tacoma area...my company moved me up here from Texas about 6 months ago...where exactly is Tinkam Road/NFD 5510 road (directions please)? I live in Puyallup/South Hill off of 161.

I did take a drive up to Mt. Rainer this weekend (entrance off of 706 going up to Longmire) so my son could play in the snow...Rover performed well and and had a great time, but I would love to wheel up Tinkam Rd. in the future.

Thanks!

mwindth,,

tinkum is between north bend and snoqualmie pass. i believe it is the next exit after exit 38.

if you go to google maps and follow the road you will see tinkum on there. you can see the trail roads and their numbers on their as well.

when my cousin and her husband get their rig up and running in a couple weeks we are planning a trip up there again. they are in graham ( just south of you). if you like maybe we can all plan a jaunt together.

im into timeless looks,,, not the latest/greatest. i adore the 308. nothing like a ferrari v8 with open webers at full howl,,,, i think i just peed myself a little[8D]

and the duc, well not the most loved of the ducati line but i find the 999 to be a model that is different and ahead of its time, and will be considered timeless,,, in time

i too am a monster fan. i am a ducati *****, not a sole fan of one particular model. i am their favorite kind of customer because i light up around all of their stuff. its bad when salesmen, techs, managers and owners of a dealer all know you on a first name basis, ha!
