monday

Yesterday, Comet and I went around the Olympic peninsula (Bremerton-to-Bremerton on US 101). I took a nice ferry ride from Seattle and Comet rode up from Montesano to meet me. We then proceeded to sport our way around counter-clockwise to Montesano (where Comet stopped, as he lives there) and I finished my circle and rode back up to Bremerton and the ferry home.

We stopped in Sequim for lunch and deployed the camera (one of many gizmos in Comet's workspace) to take some video as we rode the good part along Lake Crescent and through the Hoh rainforest. Mostly as an equipment test for his upcoming ride to the MotoGPs at Laguna Seca next month. I don't yet know how to post video, but eventually that will be a feature here at 100miles. It was a perfect day for riding (85F inland 70-75F on the coast), and aside from the slow-movers on the curly part by Lake Crescent (double yellows for miles, no shoulder, few pull-outs...not that most folks use the pull-outs), it was nice.

Just FYI, before lunch on a weekday this tasty stretch of road is all but deserted. But don't try to go there then...that's my time.

It's not right to ride to the ocean and not take a picture of it, so here are some nice at-the-beach shots.

Ride Safe! Vote Hubbard!
