I did a 300k ride with 6 rando friends on Saturday. We started from the Seattle Ferry dock at 0500 and followed the Duwamish and Interurban trail to Auburn, STP route to Tenino, West to Elma, North to Potlatch, then through Belfair to finish at the Bremerton Ferry. It was a little dicey at the start due to heavy frost on the trail and it was very slick between Summit and Spannaway but everyone rode steady and stayed upright. We managed to dodge the rain other than a few sprinkles. Beautiful blue skies a lot of the day.
It started at about 34 degrees and worked up to 44 before going back down to about 35. I wore 2 wool shirts, rain jacket, wool shorts, arm warmers, leg warmers, shoe covers, wool mountaineering socks, silk balaclava, cycling cap, and 2 pairs of gloves. We did it in 15 hours 17 min. Missed the Seahawks game but no regrets
