Route Guide: Interurban Burke-Gilman Trail Connector Loop
We’ve gone over the Interurban Trail in South King County, now it’s time for the Interurban Trail in North King County (and extends into Snohomish County, but we won’t be going that far north for this route). At around 25 miles, this is a good distance for an after work route. My routine for preparing…
Route Guide: 520 Trail Loop
One thing I enjoy biking year after year is the changing landscape of possible bike routes. There are routes possible now which couldn’t be done when I started biking. One of those is the 520 Trail Loop. When I first started biking, I lived right on the Sammamish River Trail. I would ride up and…
Route Guide: Green River and Interurban Trails
In South King County there are two major trails which intertwine and create many interesting loops and connections. If you only want to ride on trails, there are plenty of ways to go about that. (Kent has some useful maps here) My route also includes on road riding, especially during the southeast portion of the…

Ride Report
Ride Report: Middle Fork Snoqualmie
Getting there is half the fun I first learned about Middle Fork road in 2018 from a post on The Urbanist. I don’t know how I let 3 years go by without trying it, but I rectified that mistake on Wednesday. I took the authors advice and went on a weekday in order to take…
Ride Report: Sultan Loop
Riding the hidden bridge It’s been a while since I’ve been to Sultan. I’ve only been there as part of group rides, but was excited to start doing long summer rides again. One part that isn’t my favorite is crossing the Sultan River on Highway 2. I did a little research before the ride, and…
Bike Tour
Bike Tour: Honolulu
Looking back at my last few posts, this is starting to look like a travel blog! I do plan on posting more local Seattle rides later this year, but first I had to escape our freezing cold weather and spend some time on an island! This was my first time to Hawai’i in over a…
Bike Tour: Portland
This year I participated in STP for the 4th time. I rode it with co-workers, which was a fun experience. We also camped as a group in Centralia. My STP tradition is staying a couple of days in Portland and taking the Amtrak Cascades back. This year was no different. As I hadn’t been riding…
Bike Tour: Puerto Vallarta
Since early 2020, the furthest I’ve ventured outside of Washington State is Bend, OR. I also haven’t been on a plane during this time. It was nice to take a couple weeks off for a family vacation, and what felt like the first real vacation from work in a very long time. Since I started…

Transit Biking
Bike Tour: Olympic Peninsula
Getting a head start with transit Yes, it would have been possible to ride all the way to Olympic Peninsula, but the increased bike miles might have added an extra day I didn’t have. Instead, I decided to bike down to the Bainbridge Island ferry and take the bus from there in order to get…
Recap: June
June 2: Flying Wheels This was my third time participating in Cascade’s Flying Wheels, and my second time doing the century. They changed the route a bit to include Snoqualmie and North Bend. I liked the route update, as it was my first time riding on those roads. The 202 was a bit busy for…
Recap: May
May is of course #BikeEverywhere month, and I took full advantage, cycling 950 miles over 28 days! May 6: Green River Trail to Angle Lake This was my second time riding to the Des Moines Creek Trail. I first noticed it on the King County Trail Finder and realized it was close to the southernmost…
