Baby, it’s damp and dark outside!
It may be colder, wetter and darker out there as we rapidly approach the winter solstice, but there’s still a lot of biking going on in the Evergreen State. We’ve got some Instagram images to prove it.
The folks at Ortlieb (an auction sponsor and organizational member) remind us that it’s possible to travel by bike during the rainy season and keep our gear dry.
@cgram43 joined the young and young-at-heart for a Kidical Mass ride in Tacoma. Rides are scheduled monthly and the next one will celebrate the winter solstice.
@lww76 of Walla Walla and some friends took advantage of the cooler eastern Washington days for a quick bicycle overnight to Lewis and Clark State Park.
@blbicycles showed us that some rain and some dirt can be a gravel grinder’s delight.
No need to give up the bike commute or training ride because the days are short. @joeski_nw lights up his bike for an evening ride.
Don’t let the change in seasons dampen your cycling spirit. Put your foot to the pedal and bike to work, to the trails, or to an overnight escape. Join us on Instagram @wabikes and share your images with us by tagging #WAbikes.
