Ride from Seattle to Vancouver & Party - 2008
While there were a lot of SBTC Members riding on RSVP this year,
there were also a lot helping out before the ride and along the way.
|
The weather for this year's ride was sunny and hot requiring
frequent hydration stops along the water for thirsty riders.
|
Like other events, club members had a lot of fun along the way
whether stopping to socialize or fix a flat, or riding their bikes.
|
RSVP is one of the more scenic rides of the year
with non-stop vistas to look at from the start to the end.
|
Bellingham is the mid-way overnight stop and most club members
stayed there at either the college dorms or a local motel.
|
Day two takes riders north through Lyndon which always calls
for a stop for pastries as well as for socializing.
|
After Lyndon riders quickly get to the Candian Border and
a change of markers from Apples to Maple Leaves to show the way.
|
In Canada everyone has to line up at Fort Langley to be ferried
across the Fraser River before going west to Vancouver.
|
The second day is much shorter than the first and in no time
members were in downtown Vancouver walking on city beaches.
|
The Ride from Seattle to Vancouver was a lot of fun and members
sadly returned to Seattle for the end of another great event.
