Coast to Coast Ride

Monday, May 10, 2010

Tomorrow the adventure begins anew. Michele, Roy, and I will board a train for Seattle, arriving on Wednesday evening, Amtrak willing. The next day we will take another train to Mount Vernon, Washington. From there we will pedal to Anacortes for a ferry to the San Juan Islands, the actual start of our ride. We'll take three weeks or so to pedal back to Alameda along the Pacific coast. One or two friends may join us for a day or two along the way.

We had intended to get in some practice riding with weight for fitness. Naturally, that never happened. We'll have to develop our fitness on the road.

I've been worried about the weather. I hope not to be riding in a cold rain. I'm anxious to start riding instead of worrying.

I'll try to post updates and pictures from the road as the opportunity for internet access arises.

The docents will be following your every move! (Or every rain drop . . .)
