Feeler: Seattle drive

What: Drive starting from alderwood mall to deception pass then back.
Whenct 11 or 12/OR/Oct 25 or 26 (pick one that works for everybody) and let me know soon!
Time: Morning/Afternoon

the weather said it should be around 57 and sunny!!! (on the 11 and 12)

So I was thinking after going on a drive with erick the other day that it would be nice to do a long drive somewhere cause I always think that the drives to redmond or alki are always too short. The total distance for this drive is 68 miles one way according to map quest. Another reason I wanna do a drive is because i'm getting my ksports in The drive is long enough to keep it intereesting and not long enough to make your ass fall asleep and if mike gets to come im sure he'll have plenty of footage to take So get all your performance mods in and lets do it.

Im planning to start out at alderwood mall and ride out from there. The way back could either be taking I-5 back the way we came or we can go all the way to Clinton and take the ferry back to Mulkilteo.

Bring cameras and money for food


P.S. since its in oak harbor anyways we could always drop by uncald4's shop

heres the mapquest link http://www.mapquest.com/mq/3-96uA1FmTxmYY

I would like to go for a drive, Sunday afternoons sounds good, but depends on how much schoolwork I have. I will start volunteering probably next week, and then Sundays are really the only day I have to do all my HW.

2 hours for 103 miles? lets do it in one haha we arent exactly going to drive like grandmas...

the weather looks like its going to be really shitty...i asked rob to roll with but sounds like he will be out of town.

camano island is alot shorter and is still a fun drive so i think that might be a good idea. from alderwood it is only like 30 miles of I-5 then the rest is small roads. is the weather kinda makin people want to say no?

well honestly guys i think its a game day decision based on the weather. the forecast says rain all day. for anyone whos interested send me a text before 2. my number is 425 478 6859. i dont think driving in rain is a good idea either so it might be best to postpone this till better weather.
