[Noisebridge-discuss] Track my progress biking to Toor.

[Rubin Abdi]

I was biking with two others, Ken and Mitchel.

Yesterday we took the summit pass, which is an assent from 1000ft to 
3000ft along a portion of the I-90 highway, riding on the shoulder, 
while semis and other large cars would wizz past us. It took us a good 
1-2hours to get to the top of the thing, and lots of focus. At the top 
we had sat down and had lunch. Once we got back onto our bikes I noticed 
some weirdness in my right heel.

There's a river between Seattle and the missile silo, the bridge over 
this river doesn't have enough of a shoulder for us to pass on bikes. 
After descending the mountain we called up a truck that was planning to 
head to Toor that day. When the truck arrived we hopped on and got over 
the river. Once at the first town I jumped off and noticed that my heel 
was pretty fucked. I unfortunately did the sane thing and opted to get a 
ride all the way to Toor, leaving my two travel partners behind to camp.

I'll be posting photos and stories from my trek soon enough. For the 
moment you can check out these two photos I took last night...
