Folks
This worked great before so I'll try again. This business trip is to Everett Washington. for about three weeks leaving on 23 July. Tell me about biking out there, and does it rain al lot? I can bring rain gear.
Thanks

This is a link to pavel bike trails in King county, probably over a hundred miles of good riding that you can check out. All the metro buses here in Seattle also have bike racks on the front so you can get into seattle from Everett (it would be a long ride from Everett to Seattle). If you are looking to do some mountain biking the list is endless. Yup, it rains quite often here but we dont pay it any attention. We just get wet:) You will be coming at a great time of year and the rains should be minimal. If you have any questions you can pm me and I'll try to help as much as possible.

p.s. Oh yea... and the "Burke Gilman" trail in north Seattle runs from UW up around the north side of Lake Washington, this is one of our favorites (we ride a tandem) and can be very challenging when the wind picks up.
