Danke, gents. The thing that makes that boat even more impressive is the fact that it sat on the bottom of the lake for more than 50 years and was then restored to that like-new condition.
Sounds like a fun run, Les - how many days will this be spread over?

Done!
207 miles, a new personal best distance.
That was a very interesting experience. The best part was the Mexican paceline.

@les you're going on a 400 mile ride? Is this the first we're hearing of this or is it just me?
Thx.
I'm giving myself 6.5 days - Issaquah to Camas, the hard way. Still haven't figured out how much paved vs. gravel, but seems pretty gravelly.

KHS is about 80% loaded for the trip. Need the handlebar bag on the tandem today, so it'll go on tomorrow, then I figure out which hydration pack I'll be wearing. Also need to double check water source spacing to see if I need to up my water carrying capacity.
Going for a greatly reduced mileage ride so I don't have to rush it. About 400 miles and 27,000' climbing.

Nice trip. Pics!

I plotted out a 750 miler, but can't get away for that many days, and some stretches of that route require permits and combinations for gate locks. Now just a measly 400-ish miles.

Nice pic. I would love to explore those mountains one day.
In a car, of course.

That's a worthy endeavor, @LesterOfPuppets. Ride safe, but most of all, have fun!
