Cabin Run 6/28

Edit: this should have read 6/28, not 6/29

This will be a short, fun ride to The Cabin on Hood Canal. Some of you have been up the road, but none of you have actually been to The Cabin. The ride itself will be fairly short, so the day will actually be pretty chill. It's a short, easy ride up, followed by a couple of hours of chilling in the sun, followed by the same route back. If you're looking to rail or ride all day, this isn't the ride for you. If you're looking to get out for the day and relax, you may enjoy this. I'm going with or without a crew.

Leaving Canyons in the morning, although the time is TBD at this point. It won't be early; probably around 10:00 or so. We'll catch the Edmonds/Kingston ferry and hit about a 10 mile stretch of twisties (be careful -- this road eats bikes). After that, we'll drink a beer and enjoy a rest in the hammock or sit on the dock and look at the harbor. When we're all ready, we'll head back. Round trip is only about 100 miles.

If the weather is shitty, this will be cancelled. The road is treacherous enough when it's dry, and shitty weather makes hanging out much less fun.

This is an open invitation.

count me in:D

skipping the show on alki???

Typo. I meant 6/28. Saturday: Cabin. Sunday: Alki.

Yeah, a bunch of us went up there last year, remember? The day Denny went down. We had about 12 bikes in the yard.

You know I'm always down for a cabin run. :giddy

Will likely make it out to this one....

sounds like fun, will most likely make it because i cant ride sunday (thats my justification to the wife)

Ah yes. I forgot about the post-crash relax.

If you're curious about the roads (and didn't see my other thread), check out http://www.derekware.com/videos/.

I just got Saturday off too. I'm sure the wife will allow me to take a break from packing to go play.

Nope, not at all. Just be careful when we get up there. The two roads that lead to the cabin will take you out if you don't pay attention or get overly confident in the straights. There's a couple of spots where there's a nice straightaway followed by a 30MPH (warning speed, not actual) turn.

The current plan is to leave Canyons at 10:00, so try to be there before then.

just to clarify, Canyon park Canyons or Mount Lake Terrace Canyons?

the MLT one is right down the street from the ferry so thats why im askin :)

Canyon Park Canyon's. The train leaves at 10:00.

word up, cya there

I can't make this one. Sometime between going to my buddies house in Lynnwood and South Center I punctured my rear tire. Gotta get it changed in the morning.

:1pissed

I know. WTF?! We're sitting there at SB's, I turn and look...it didn't look right. Get to the Chevron and sure enough there's a fuggin puncture.
