Canadian Rockies '18: Day 8

START LOCATION: Spokane, WA
END LOCATION: Seattle, WA
MILES TRAVELED: 407.8
TOTAL MILES TO DATE: 4301.5
WEATHER SUMMARY: Perfect!

Best part of the day: I got to talk to Lindsey and Lorelai and Jaimee and Ruth. Starting my morning this way, I just KNEW Friday had to be a better day. After all of these days of rain, rain, and more rain - today was weather perfection. Crisp and cool with abundant sunshine made for personal comfort and great riding conditions.

The roads we experienced today were absolutely amazing... beautiful from a scenic perspective and jam-packed with riding excitement. It's late. We're very tired. So not a lot of pics and not a lot of description.

Beyond the great weather and excellent riding, we met Trent in Seattle, went to the Space Needle, and had some great time together at dinner. Didn't get into town early enough to make it to Pike Street Market or whatever it's called.

Another big day tomorrow... riding roads less traveled.


Here's a link to some riding video:

And here are just a few pics from the day:

"No, friend, I'm sorry. It's just too much power for you."
Located 1,200 feet above sea level, Diablo Lake, stmply put, looks unreal.
The brilliant turquoise water is impossible to miss. It positively shines.
The crystalline lake's distinctive jade-green glow comes courtesy of
finely ground glacier sediment suspended in the water.
