No, no, no, Nygard. After this ride, we'll spend another few weeks here talking about which other route/destination we Should have done, and how we should have done more planning. Luckily, it looks like the October camping thread will not repeat this process, as Trevor announced a destination from the beginning.

You drunk, drunk, drunk, fucktards. I show up at about 7, and never thought it was possible for everyone to be that fucked up. And the worst part was I couldn't stay or fucking drink. Fuck you. Remington thanks for the tackle. I have sand in places I shouldn't. I told my friend lori, that you Fuckers could get a little out of hand, she said, I've never witnessed that much booze get drunk that fast. I told her you fuckers were just warming up. And laura thanks for being in the photo with me, and good luck being the only girl.

O and FUCK YOU ALL OF YOU.

never in my life did i expect to hear ben say "thank god, the burke gilman!" when we rolled into woodinville.

i think we figured out it's only about ~15 miles further around on the SVT, it's a great trail, mostly flat or slight downhill from snoqualmie all the way to duvall. it's really too bad it ends in duvall though. we learned all about assholes driving from duvall to woodinville, especially scary when there's the truck loaded with alfalfa bales that's crossing the fogline itself.

derrick forgot to mention the port, poor laura that the $18 375ml wasn't as good as my $6 750ml. that didn't hold true for tequila though - ro's amazingly generous contribution definitely skunked the jose cuervo black.

Damn it, I liked my port! Still, Lee had the better price/quality ratio. I like how when I tried to find said port last night, someone gave me an empty IPA bottle. I never found the port and that was probably for the better.

Also add: Maker's Mark to the list.

Remington had quite an evening in tackling. First with Derrick over a chair, then Sketchy, then Derrick again. However, Derrick clearly won the last match and Remington has the spoon/fork marks to prove it on his back.

Ro had quite an evening of fire jumping ... with marks to prove it on his leg.

Sketchy - your WHITE ASS is in my camera. You will suffer for this in some way to be determined. You shit.

Henry needed a belt.

Ben is North Bend's most hated.

Pretty damn cool seeing that bear on the SVT.

I wish I could recall all the lawsuits that were filed on this journey.

Lucia, I missed you. :)

Miles put it best - the group went from sober to completely fucked up in less than an hour. Unbelievable.

Henry that was some amazing rhyming, wish I had it on video. Some things aren't as funny in the light of day, but I think that would hold up.

Longest 50 mile ride home ever. Pete, tequila and oj was a good discovery, but I think I've ruined my chances of ever drinking it again. Ow.

America!

Awesome trip everybody! Great ride up, and lots of fun at camp. Couldn't have asked for better weather, too. And I still can't believe how fucked up everybody was so quickly.

Lee, Ben, Evan - Good detour ride home, not too much further, and nice to see some new area out there.

MikeOD - Fuck yeah!

Holy crap I got owned on this ride. However, I still concede the drunkest drunks to Remington and Ro. The highlight of my night was the confrontation between Derrick (spork and Swiss army knife in each hand) and Remington. You're a frickin lunatic Remington. I got way too drunk and my left knee hurts now.

Oh yeah, and I probably biked more than 100 miles this trip.

Day 1:
Good choices on trails to get there. I'm glad that I now know where they are. My favorite trail was the Preston-Snoqualmie trail at least until we had to go on the road. Small Fryes was tasty. I'm not a huge fan of dirt and gravel roads, but the SVT was very scenic.

Day 2:
I'm glad Ben took us up north on this route. It was a nice ride through the countryside. The climb up Woodinville-Duvall wasn't as bad as I thought and I too was very happy once we got to the BGT. At that park in Woodiville on the BGT, a non-biker asked this overweight squid "Did you do the STP?" Fuck the STP, this ride is what bicycling is all about.

FUCK YEAH!!

I just increased by life insurance so I don't leave the wife and kiddies without a roof and closets.
That was a brutal 50 miles of hot head wind coming back almost didn't make it accross the I90 bridge, about 1/2 way over the bridge I stopped a thought about tying myself to the bike and throwing us both over the rail.

Why not? You have to sign up, yeah, but until I get a captcha on there that's the way it has to be.

That was the problem: I couldn't find the new account page. I just noticed a link to it on the reset password page.

Edit: Nevermind, I see it now.
