Epic 63 mile bike ride with my wife in Western Washington

I went on a 63 mile ride with my wife this last Saturday.  We didn't take a camera (I hate stopping and starting and thinking like a photographer while riding) but decided to revisit our path today.  Our ride took us through the Sammamish, Snoqualime, and the Snohomish river valleys.  So while there's not any photos of us and/or our bikes, I hope it gives you and idea of what it's like to ride in Western Washington.  I've really enjoyed the photo threads you guys have put together so thought I'd return the favor.

The photos below are in series.  They are linear and represent the start to finish.  I had to filter out a lot so if you think there are too many -- sorry.  There could have been a lot more.  

I also chose not to narrate them.  I hope they are self explanatory.  Please ask if you have any questions.

Well done.  It feels like I could go and ride it by the pictures.  

What town has the vintage flea?

PS- I did not even know we had blogs here.

Great photos, thanks for sharing your ride.  What is the speed limit on most of the roads out of town.  Looks like you have nice shoulders to ride on in the area.  Our shoulders on secondary roads are about like the ones next to your guard rails, and car speed limit is 70mph.

Most of it was between 25-55.  The worst for traffic and speed is the 13 miles from Redmond to Fall City.  I'd say about the first 9 of that are busy with traffic and they're zipping through there at 55.  But then you get out into the rural valleys and it's pretty sweet.
