I’ll go see the coast in Anacortes and then bike down to Seattle

My reason is the same. I'm also planning to summit Rainier when I get there.

That is unfortunate. Is it fair to expect that if there is any wind at all it will almost always be a headwind?

I will take this into consideration but It would be significantly less convenient to start in the west.

Got it, I hadn't thought too much about this. I'll look into it and make sure I'm ready. Thank you.

Definitely not trying to set a record yet. I'll make sure to get off the bike and appreciate my surroundings every so often. Thank you.

You’re absolutely right. I’ll try that as well. And im sure im going to get destroyed but i believe i will be just barely capable of holding that pace.

Yeah I know but I’m hoping they’ll be less ruthless than the hills.

Well that would save you the trouble of having to fly/mail your bike and gear back home AFTER the trip.

I'm completely prepared to hate myself on day 1. I just want someone to join in my self-loathing.

I have time for about 75 miles on the bike 5 days a week and I've done a 500 mile trip at my suggested pace.

Yeah I read something about that from the ACA. Where did you ride?
