We flew into Seattle today, after barely making our 6:25 AM flight out of DCA due to TSA ineptitude, and commenced upon our bike trip across America! The most exhausting part of the day for me was spent trying to pump up my tires with a small hand pump - that was a chore! After filling the tires, reattaching the pedals, and making minor adjustments, we were off.
We biked about 20 miles south, the wrong way, to Eric's friend's, Brad's parent's house to stay over night. When we arrived, we were greeted by black and tans, crab dip, and the best ribs I've ever had in my life! I'm totally stuffed right now. As you can guess, the bike trip has been great, so far!In addition to the wonderful hospitality of Brad's parents and their delicious food, we were awed by the view of Mt. Ranier just a couple of miles into our ride. Fortunately, we'll avoid the mountains for a couple days, as we first travel north for a couple days, island hoping in the Puget Sound. Then it's time for the Cascade Mountains! (oh no!!!)
