Today was the Chilly Hilly, a 33-mile ride around Bainbridge Island. Bicycling Magazine named it "one of four classic rides" in the country and it's a rite of passage for Seattle cyclists. I've been wanting to do this for years but the "chilly" (and rainy) component of the ride really turned me off. I think we've become a bit more acclimated to the weather here and decided this would be the year to give it a try. We met Robin at the ferry terminal and departed on the 7:55 boat. It was amazing to see so many cyclists in one spot- we took up most of the ferry and that was only the first of four boats. The ride was fun and definitely lived up to it's name. Bainbridge Island is an awesome place to ride and I think we'll head back once it's a bit warmer :)
