Thanks so much, knew I could count on the sweet northwest bike riders!! I will do some research. If you ever want to ride southern Idaho let me know! We also just decided we are going to try to ride over to Portland in September for the Oregon Manifest so I guess I better get off the computer and go get on my bike before it tops 90 degrees

Get on the trail system on the east-side of Lake Washington (Bellevue area, if that is your home base.)

Ride on the trails (rail to trail MUPs) and the signed bike routes through Bothell and Lake Forest Park and to the seashore around Edmonds. (this will let you avoid the part of the Burke-Gilman that is under construction right now)

At Edmonds you can take a quick ferry over to the Olympic peninsula, or hang a right and ride north up the shore for a couple hours to Mukilteo and take a quick ferry over to Whidbey Island. Whidbey has an extensive MUP also. Langley and Coupeville on the south end of the island are cool towns, you could spend a good bit of time hanging around there. Especially the Knead and Feed in Coupeville... fabulous bread and soup!

Continuing north up Whidbey you can check out Deception Pass, which is wildly beautiful.

There are campgrounds and state parks all over the place, you'd have no problem finding places to camp. No problem finding a bed and breakfast if it rains too hard, either.

We are having a great trip so far, currently in Port Townsend where I swear everything is uphill!! We took the ferry from Seattle To Bainbridge, camped at a great state park on the water, Yesterday followed Adventure Cycling maps to PT. Tried to camp at Fort Wroten but very creepy person in the hike and bike area so ended up retracing our path to Port Townsend State Park. Taking the Ferry over to Widbey Island soon and noodling toward the ferry. Wednesday will be interesting riding back to Bellevue. Now if the knee just holds up all will be good.
