  • Lake Samish Loop

    Lake Samish Loop

    I don’t know if I should call this ride a loop exactly, because the only part of it that is actually a loop is the part around the lake itself.  So maybe this should be in a new classification of it’s own.  I’ll call it an out and back loop where I ride out somewhere,…

  • Another Nooksack Loop Ride

    Another Nooksack Loop Ride

    I’m pretty much wearing a rut into this route around this mostly north of Bellingham loop.  This time riding from my house, rather than downtown Ferndale or somewhere else along the route, today’s ride was a somewhat longer ride at about 50 miles. I did the loop clockwise which for me had more of the…

  • 1952 Raleigh Sports

    1952 Raleigh Sports

    Always amazed at what you can run across in Bellingham.  While window shopping Facebook Marketplace a couple of days ago for a more fuel efficient car, I stumbled into my latest bike.

Maybe I’ll quit revisions on it all together because lately the changes haven’t really been updates so much as small variations to account for my mood or weather. Today, a sunny Sunday morning, had the trails around Lake…

  • Quiet Lummi Loop

    Quiet Lummi Loop

    Today’s ride around the Lummi Peninsula was the quietest trip around that loop that I can ever recall.  That’s something, especially for this particular loop that can be fraught with barking dogs, loud trucks and cars whizzing to and from the ferry.  Today though….nothing. Just nothing. It was a nice warm spring morning, not too…

  • Two Towers and a Trail?

    Two Towers and a Trail?

    Since the first time I bike hiked up to the towers on Lookout Mtn I’ve wanted to explore some of the nameless trails on the way back down. On today’s ride I did, and the trail I chose will now be know to me as No Buenos Trail. I’m sure it has a proper name…
