First day on the road!

Our first day was the best day of biking ever!!! It was 70degrees and sunny. Washington State is the most beautiful place I have ever seen. There are lakes, bays, trees, and snow capped mountains everywhere.

Jesse's cousin, Jen, biked with us for the first 50miles and our good friend Dell who helps us get ready for the SkiToSea race that we just finished biked the entire day with us. We finished with about 80miles. We had to take a ferry across a lake to get to Port Townsend. Wow! that was fun.

When we arrived in Port Townsend we went right to the local bike shop. PT Cyclery was great! The owner was all excited about what we were doing and like all other bikers do he warned us that the fixed gear bikes are going to destroy our knees. I hope he is wrong :) We got a sticker for our car, got Jesse's front tire trued up and then we biked to the Fosser's house.

The Fossers were the nicest people ever made!! They gave us a tour of the town, fixed an AMAZING dinner, and let us use their washing machines to wash our dirty clothes. It was sooo nice to have such fun people to hang out with and to be able to relax. It was a perfect day!!
