Ok so we sissied out and took the truck over along with the bikes. When we got to the ferry dock at Anacortes the rain was coming sideways. So I told Mrs. Stringbreaker "Lets take the truck" For some reason she didn't argue. We drove to our cabin parked the truck and got the bikes down and off we went for about 3 hours. I don't like to ride in the rain mainly cause its so hard to see. We did ride down to the townsite and look around and in between rain squalls rode around, back and forth to wherever we pointed out tires. It wasn't too bad and by the time M.S. was completely soaked it was time to check in. I should point out the first thing I did was to wipe the bikes down so they wouldn't get the floor of the cabin all wet. No way was I letting them sit out in what could have been a very rainy night. Tuesday dawned foggy and cool and drippy so since we didn't feel like getting all the stuff wet that had dried out overnight (mainly us) we decided to take the truck and drive down for breakfast. When we got back to the cabin the sky was clearing so we hopped on the bikes and took the rest of the day to ride around the island. It was really nice. Not too warm and not cold just right for riding. Here are a few pretty self explanatory pictures we took. http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb150/stringbreaker53/001-3.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb150/stringbreaker53/005-1.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb150/stringbreaker53/018-1.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb150/stringbreaker53/031.jpg
