the first.

September 10th, Day 3 mile 220


Greetings from the road this is hopefully the first of many correspondences tracking the incredible bike adventure of Tamaso and Iain across America 2007! We will update in person when possible, but Hri may also update for us.

Today, our 3rd day on the road, we enjoyed a pleasant peddle across a variety of scenery including tidal flats, pastoral meadows and crowded highways. We traveled from Port Townsend across Puget Sound and are currently in Raser State Park at the foothills of the North Cascades:

I will spare you further details and close with a list of the most ironic/memorable things seen today.

#1. A small poorly designed, hard to read sign advertising quality sign and banner making service at a value.

#2. A very obese woman in a PT Cruiser listening to “Baby Got Back” at high volume in an ice cream shop parking lot.

#3. Bumper sticker reading: “Jet noise, the sound of freedom” spotted near Whidbey Island naval air station.

#4. “Double Darrel BBQ, Home of Smokin Good Ribs” restaurant outside Sedro Woolley burned to the ground
