My days in California are probably numbered..

[@Dr.L_AVEC]

The Ridge is such a nice track though! You also get the mountain roads around Mt Rainer :) the track in Kent, Pacific raceway, is also a great track. I’m in Yakima WA with a son and daughter in law in issquah.

[@PezRacer]

Oh man, sorry to hear Chad. All it does is rain in Seattle! I’d keep looking for another opportunity. My company is now what they’re calling a remote first company since the pandemic. I went from only remote a few days a week to full time remote. It’s good for them and great for the employees, everybody wins!

[@DCGULL01]

Well, that's a handful of 'life', eh? Good perspective, humble approach, wonder & gratitude- good way to face 'situations'. Very impressed & happy that you will definitely be OK.

[@hiimchad]

Sure is! Thank you for the compliments 🙂

[@michaelhuffman5456]

I live south of Seattle and have a Tuono Factory as well. I go to the track. Look me up when you are here and we will ride.

[@hiimchad]

Appreciate the offer! Not bringing my bike up immediately, but will certainly keep it in mind. 🙂

[@michaelhuffman5456]

I have an S1000RR and the Tuono. You can ride either.

[@ghostinthewind23]

Wishing you the best with the changes man! Hopefully it will work out in your favor long term. Post when you can homie we'll be here ;)

[@LoveMachined]

Do what you have to do man! Keep the videos coming!

[@Youbettyler]

Seattle isn’t too shabby, granted riding season is short. But there is A lot of good track day organizations (2fast, track time, OPRT) as well as the WMRRA (club racing). Very close to a lot of good tracks as well. The ridge (50min away) pacific race ways (30 min) Portland international raceway (3 hours) Oregon raceway park (5 hours)

[@HippoDrones]

Great to see a vloggy vlog 🙂 A new chain adds a couple of bhp... even if just pchyologically. Good luck with the coaching. And again, good luck with the change of scenery for work, I hope that works out well for you mate.

I was in a bad way when I moved from LA back to NYC 😢 I was there for 6 years

[@timothypuvogel5468]

Cool im from seattle,i miss it!! ❤❤ New subscriber🎉

[@knunez30]

That’s a bummer man. Seattle is nice though, good moto/racing community in the PNW. Oh and you rode by my crib 😂

[@razerblade2001]

Come on down to vancouver

[@Arshumness]

Really sorry to hear that, Chad. I’d be looking for a new job if I were you. Seems like have a good thing going with this organization, so it’s a shame that they are so invested in commercial real estate. Wishing you the best of luck! Seattle is still a cool place!

[@MasterBlasterSr]

You going to enjoy mountain riding in Washington.

[@hiimchad]

If it’s dry enough 😅

[@jaredantonio6461]

I get it bro VR mode 😜 so fun

[@therealsambodian]

Bummer, way shorter riding season up there. Small bump in the road, things are still great for you.

[@Antmanmoto]

They probably have some amazing twisties up there though!

[@hipposnakeyo]

I just moved to Seattle an year ago, honestly it’s not that bad but for sure the off season is long

[@vzmoto2476]

:( damn didnt even get to shred some laps with you

[@GeorgiaGrowGuy]

Chad, the Tuono called and it wants to spend its time in the NGA mountains not a dreary town full of patchouli jars and clove cigarettes. It promised to write often. Cheers!!!! p.s. that sucks but there are folks losing their jobs so it beats a pink slip.

[@deankruse4491]

Damn, sucks that you have to move 😫 . What does your other half plan on doing? Can she find work in Washington easily? All the best to you buddy. 🙏

[@pyrusmasterdan1]

dang

[@captricharddee3634]

Same as digital watches, their 'days are numbered'.

[@d675ose7]

Just say no & they’ll keep you if they really value you - you’ll be going from 8mths+ sunny riding a year to 5mths ish a year & everthing else that comes with a big move. Only go because you want to - plenty of companies recruit & let you work remotely & you’ll find a new job before you know it👍🏻

[@slim-bobbilly4331]

Dang, dude. Keep a bike here. Buy a little truck to haul it from a storage locker, and fly down on weekends. :)

[@gavin19613]

aye seattle. complete shithole but other parts of it are nice. i live near there and there's beautiful roads everywhere

[@hiimchad]

But rain 🥲

[@gavin19613]

@@hiimchad yep. It's actually kind of a long riding season, us Washingtonian riders could ride if it's sprinkling and all that but it lasts about 7 months maybe (March-April all the way to October . Depends on weather but I don't mind it being cold or a little rainy.

[@gavin19613]

@@hiimchad there's cool meets too if ur interested in that stuff

[@dcryder9736]

They gearing up to shut things down this fall, you may not have to go back to office 🙏

[@kingpanda79]

Sorry to hear that you have to move from one liberal cesspool to another. Ride safe!

[@GeorgiaGrowGuy]

Sorry to hear about your cesspool problems Chad, it's a good thing this guy knows all about them. Cheers!

[@LexPips]

Such a joke you CONservatives are! Living your lives in trashy red neck states, bet you have never even been to California or Washington, you know so little but are so quick to judge.

[@blue12334]

I went from cali to Seattle. Lasted 8 months. If you need to ride often stay the hell away from Washington state
