Parking at Marymoor is $1 and I think we should park on the West Side

This would be a great bike ride. Not sure I am willing to walk this far yet.

I'll be legal,

 




@Ty, I should be able to keep up with you. I hope ...

@Iuri, Plenty more rides in the future. I want to do the full trail all the way to the locks. BUT in sections I don't feel I'm healthy enough to ride that far in one sitting within a reasonable time.
   
Kami and Devin both have other plans.

Ohh my dad has a 50% chance of coming.

Just outside our parking lot

Trip did not go as planned, My BP hopped up high on the first big hill (that wasn't that big).
Then on some of the other hills I had to jump off because the muscles around my hip where killing me.

A random sign from the road taken from the ram mounted phone.

Fast forword to the bottom of the lake heading back north. I was feeling a bunch of resistance as if we were going up a grade. I felt a bump in the handlebars and heard that not so nice sound of the rim hitting the blacktop. The front rotted tube decided to let go. I tried to ride it a bit further but I ended up walking.
Laura and Kami came down in the FJ to pick me up at the old 7-11 parking lot area.

and to finish the day we got to install Kami's new badge

New tires & tubes Will be ordered Monday with a spare tube and compact pump for the next bike adventure.
