Classic Seattle Spring Evening Spin

May 20, 2014 by David Longdon Leave a Comment

One of my standard rides, a ride I’ve done hundreds of times, is a loop around the south end of Mercer Island then down to Renton and back to Seattle. When you travel over the same roads and pathways hundreds of times it’s easy to miss the obvious. During this evening’s spin I encountered a few sights that demanded attention:

Goose crossing in Mercer Slough.
