Pacific Northwest Trekkers Reach Deception Pass


Today was a long biking day which started with the sun at the early time of 6:30. After only two hours of getting ready and eating breakfast, we set out with all our gear packed. The ride started with an easy 5 miles which was completed the in just under 30 minutes.  We then took a break to get lunch and dinner foods which was strapped on to our bikes along with the rest of our gear. Between the store and lunch we passed many runners who were part of the RAGNAR race. We passed along words of encouragement and many high 5's. After 30 miles of riding we stopped for lunch at a beautiful beach on the Puget Sound. We had run out of water and thankfully we found a pottery shop in the nick of time. They gave us directions to a grocery store where we got a much needed ice cream break. Finally after the last 15 miles we made it to the Deception Pass State Park.
