Ms Bike

Summary MS bike ride. Round 2. Ten years later. Ten years ago, we did the MS bike ride with some friends - the ride starts and ends at the Skagit county fairgrounds and it broken into two days. You have the option of doing up to 150 miles, but most people do a lot less than that. Despite not having done this ride in 10 years, Angela and I decided to give it a shot once again. We headed out on Friday evening and met up with the crew for dinner and stayed at an airBnB in someone’s basement (complete with very low ceilings). The next morning, the real fun began.

The Most Awesome Bike Trip Ever!

Sara has gotten really into biking after she got a new bike from her Grandma for her birthday - so we took advantage of some great early May weather to go on some “adventure” bike trips. I don’t usually write about day trips, but Sara was so excited about these trips and we are working up to an overnight bike trip - so I thought they would be worth writing about. The first ride was just a little under 17 miles on a mostly gravel trail and the second was a little under 18 miles on mostly paved trail. Sara proclaimed after the first one - “This was the most Awesome Bike Trip Ever!!”.

Wine country Bike trip in Walla Walla

Wine country is open! We went on our first bike ride van camping trip last weekend - a great test drive of the new van setup with tow bar/bike rack and our first wine country trip to eastern Washington - and we picked a great weekend to do it with all the rain in Seattle. We left on Saturday morning with the aim of getting to Walla-Walla mid afternoon to start our first bike ride.
