bicycle tours

pacific coast

iron horse trail

  • I rode this in 2021 with Fernando
  • the iron horse was originally a railroad
  • this trail is cool becaause after you get to snoqualmie its all downhill to the columbia river!
  • also there is a 2 mile! tunnel under snoqualmie pass
  • this railroad originaly went here to chicago & became a highway
  • now the bridge over the columbia river is open and the trail continues!
  • I hope to do the entire rail to trail which I think goes to chicago like the original train

stp seattle to portland

  • the spl organized ride didn't happen during covid
  • so I did it solo which was nice because they rush it I went slow
  • my uncle & family live in Portland so I got to hang w/ them afterwards
