As Far As I Can Tell

For the last week I’ve been at the Blood Drive Moped Rally in Seattle, Washington. A big thanks to everyone that organized and hosted the event; it was super fun. We rode roughly 30 strong all over Seattle, conquered the downtown hills, fought with repairs, and saw a rock show at the beach. It was well worth the long trip to meet new people and experience first hand the moped gang whose size threatens to overtake out Kalamazoo crew.

I’ve never driven that far in a car, and for the most part I enjoyed it. It’s awesome to see the landscape change from farmland to wasteland and then rise up into mountains before hitting the ocean. I drove as much as I could so I wouldn’t miss anything, though sleep forced me down for at least a few hours every night. The caravan consisted of my truck pulling a trailer and Dave’s parent’s van packed with people. We took the seats out of the back to make a sleeping area and packed the luggage in the trailer to save space. It was just the right amount of people that it wasn’t too cramped and kept the cost nice and low.

Here are a few photos, though you can expect a full photo gallery sometime soon.
