WIND STORM 2006!!!

Man, there was some crazy ass wind on Thursday night!! 70mph gusts in the city and 2 1/4" of rain in one day, both records for Seattle. The city is a mess. Power was lots to 1.5 million people and debris was everywhere. Lost power at home for the entire day Friday. Bob and others still don't have power (sucks even more that it's 32' out now!).

We rode the lake today and went over Juanita. It was a total mess. Trees, power lines, smashed cars, and crap all over the road. The picture above is of Bob and Anton standing next to an uprooted tree from my cell phone. The tree was massive, check out the size of its roots!

It's much calmer out now, but still cold. Looking forward to getting a few more hours in tomorrow on the bike. Felt pretty good today considering I've been off the bike for 2 weeks.
