Longest ride since February, before our 80 day COVID lockdown began here in Shanghai in mid-March. Actually did a full metric century distance, but broken into two separate rides as I had mechanical problems stemming from the complete drivetrain replacement that I did over the weekend that I needed to return home to fix before going out again. |

Only 25 miles for me :(

42 Miles, rollin hard before the high humidity 95F temps kick up.

Today, 35.5 and about 1,770 feet. Two bridges and an island. A gray, very gray day and about 62F. So compared with what some of you are contending with - a good day, I guess.

https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...55bf6ef62.jpeg Nah, you did a more extensive "loop" including the loop at Seward (Seward's Folly - Alaska purchase which the Russians want back) Park. I should note that Mercer Island is a somewhat bucolic tree lined loop with swooping curves and some nice hills. And a lot of Volvo's in the old days. Probably more Tesla's now! Years ago, on the loop of Mercer Island there were a bunch of kids picketing Paul Allen's house since he was buying an island in the San Juan Islands that had their camp! |

Interesting history on MI, thank you. And Yes you are correct, there were plenty of Teslas. Probably saw at least 6.
Did post-grad work in Eugene; home of the 70s Volvo wagon resplendent with Grateful Dead stickers. A friend lived on the same road as Paul Allen in the west side. When driving there, you'd pass a sign on a small bridge "Under video surveillance" since you were pass Allen's estate. Which brings me to the question I asked my friends. "I thought this area was zoned for Single Family homes. What's with the apartment complex two doors away" Answer: "It is Paul Allen's HOUSE" Seriously it ranged up and over the hill and was this sprawling THING! Ah, found at this link: https://seattle-mansions.blogspot.co...use-guide.html An 11,000 music hall!!!! I am still chuckling as I post this. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...2dbce5d55e.jpg |
I rode 41 miles today but didn't touch Mercer Island like some of you did. Sometimes I ride across the island but I don't think the local Mercer Island screening committee allow my type to venture off the I-90 trail onto their hallowed roads!
