Once in a while Jody will go up to Ebey's Landing to hike. I'll leave the house shortly after she does and we meet in the Ebey's Landing parking lot. Quite often our timing is perfect. She is just getting back to the car just as I arrive.
There is no end to the scenery.
This ride was a lesson in patients. The wind was strong, cold and in my face most of the way up there. Fighting the wind is futile. I had to keep telling myself "Be patient. Get into a nice gear and pump out a steady rhythm." I would build up momentum and some speed. I'd start feeling like I was getting somewhere. Suddenly a gust of wind would hit me and I'd loose all the momentum and speed I had worked for and I'd say it again "Be patient ...."
Great ride nonetheless. Check it out.
Great Climber
