Week In Review 6/18 to 6/24.

The week of 6/18 to 6/24 was another 100 mile plus week. Starting with a ride not on Whidbey Island but rather Fidelgo Island. I like to ride in the Anacortes, La Conner, Mt Vernon area. The landscape  is different from Whidbey Island. Long flat roads stretching out over the farm land of the Skagit Valley.




 Reservation road however is very similar to roads here on Whidbey.  Known as the "back way" into La Conner. Reservation road climbs up along the wooded ridge above the farmed plane.  Once you reach the top of the climb you begin the long descent across the Rainbow Bridge and into La Conner.
Thought La Conner and onto the farm land where the wind continuously blows.



Three of the rides this week features the Campbell Road climb.  This is one of the most changeling climbs on the south end. I've meet a few riders who have come to Whidbey Island to train for events on this climb.  
I thought if I climbed it three days in a row I would get over my anxiety for this climb.  

                                         




This ride has lots of climbing and I didn't have to cross state route 525.




On Sunday I did this nice short and sweet loop into Langley.
