Imagine if you will a self-contained world of a rolling adventurous graphic communicator… Wait, I was all set to cue the Twilight Zone music, but even this story is a bit beyond that realm. At the center of my PNW cycling adventure is Jody. My bike packing expert and the chief resident of the Pink […]

Time away can work wonders on the mind, body and spirit. This past month has allowed me to detox and recover. And recenter. And look forward. I had the chance to get away with and meet some great people. Along the way I racked up these stats: 4900 miles of driving 100 biking miles 14

Rolled up the air mattress and left early. A few hugs and goodbyes and I was on the road. Watched as Utah ski hills turned into Wyoming grasslands and then Colorado traffic. I’ve lost count of how many passes I’ve crossed. The changes in topography is really impressive. Along the way, found a toy for

A nice diversion going home: family is in Park City. A nice side trip that actually shortens things. Really? Well, sort of. After a morning of driving from Boise (beautiful sunrise, by the way), I made it to Park City where my son and his family were vacationing with a friend and her kids. Got

Stage 3 of this adventure began early with a cup of fresh coffee with Jody. And me breaking camp. I had no idea I had so much…stuff…with me. The guy at Meat Machines is onto something. After packing and saying goodbye to these fantastic ladies and their doggies, I hit the trail. Changed my destination

After that hard mile to the Lopez ferry, we took the good ship Sealth to Friday Harbor. Our mission is to retrieve Jody’s gear at Meat Machines and then catch the next ferry to Anacortes. In between times met and talked with Zev, a Canadian living in Scotland here to do a documentary video on

We knew the day was maybe not going to go to plan. The night before we had put Jody’s sick bike in the back of the unmarked white van of the park ranger. Serena, the ranger, promised to deliver it to the bike shop in the morning. Angel #1 makes her appearance. As she was

From the ferry to the road to camp. A full and interesting day. The ferry ride wasn’t as cold. Seeing them lash the bikes to the railing on the car deck was a bit disconcerting. Landing in Friday Harbor it was a slow climb out of town. We opted for the northern route to Roche
