Rereading blog posts on a western WA bike tour we took in 2018 makes me want to put in more bike mileage to get ready to tour again.

If you have links to stories about good tours in WA or OR I'd love to get them. I also have Cycling Sojourner guides to WA + OR, a bit dated now on some info but still helpful on routes.

Last week I biked ~300km in 3 days on gravel and road, starting from home. A cyclone rolled in and we had to take a bus back home (grateful to the driver who let the bikes on) but we did as much of the trail as we planned to.

What an adventure full of serendipity and good times with friends. It really was about the journey not the destination.

I feel like cycling is a activity of diminishing returns. I picked this trek of up $265 at the end of the Covid bike boom in 2021. It's mostly remained stock other than the drop bar conversion. I've done a lot of adventures on it and have no plans to upgrade until necessary.
