Seattle To Preston, By Mistake

I meant to take the Pacer (complete with newly installed Honjo fenders) out for a photo-heavy spin to Snoqualmie Falls today.. but instead ended up in Preston (a little west of the Falls)! It was a little anti-climatic compared to my original destination, but still a good ride.

The new fenders felt solid, though they did hum & rattle a tiny bit. And I had to switch back to the Gatorskin 25c's, since the wonderful Grand Bois 28's run on the fender.. I might get some GB 26's, and possibly try out some 28's from other makers, as the GB's are known to run a bit wide.

Rolling with the new Honjos:

Finished, time for a burger & fries (Dick's on Broadway)

Total Distance: ~102 km
Total Time: 5 hours 20 minutes
