A Tour of Mercer Island

I was up in Seattle today in preparation for tomorrow's STP. In these times of high fuel prices, why go all the way up there for one ride when you can do two?

My brother-in-law, Dave, and I were joined by fellow social bike club member Geoff, a resident of Bellevue, WA for a lap of Mercer Island. 

 

 As we pedaled along I pulled the phone out of my pocket and posted this little clip, catching the spirit (and wind noise!) of the day.

The lap around the island was 15 miles, the balance of our trip was in the commute from UW to the island and back.  It was a nice ride for we Oregonians.  Neither Dave nor I had been on the island before.
