Flying Wheels

flying wheels.jpgI’ve been getting into cycling and on Saturday I rode the Flying Wheels Summer Century. I rode the 70 mile route (not the 100) in preparation for the STP, the 200 mile 2 day Seattle to Portland bike ride.  It’s not quite the same as riding the Hog, but lots of fun nonetheless.  I’m definitely looking forward to the STP, though — it’s on 14 July and it’ll be a great way to celebrate my birthday.

300 Miles to Yakima on 28 May

The ride to Yakima continues to be fun, including the stop in Roslyn, where Northern Exposure was filmed.  Here’s a shot of me alongside the Yakima River.

Deception Pass

Another great riding day.  Here’s a photo of me at Deception Pass on Whidbey Island.  Shot with my new XTi, focal length 18mm (kit lens), f4/5, ISO 100, 1/400 sec.
