Last July Mike and I took our bikes on the Whidbey Island loop. We left the house at 9:00 and did a total of 230 miles. During the trip my 450 hit the 600 mile break in. It was a lot of fun, about 60 miles on the freeway and the rest on secondary hi ways. Leaving the house in Bellevue, WA we went north on I-405 to I-5 North. We got off at Conway and headed East to Hwy 20. At the North end of the island there is a bridge across Deception Pass. There is a ferry at the south end of the island to get back to the mainland. Hwy 20 goes south down the island. Whidbey Is is the second to the longest Island in the lower 48, second only to Long Is NY. It sits at the eastern boundary of the Straights of Juan de Fuca. This video is the part of the ride up Mount Erie. Mt Erie is a rock that sits 1273 feet above seal level. There is a narrow paved road leading to the top. The vistas are great. This is a long video (28 Min). It is for people who love the sounds and sights of a great running classic Honda Twin. Enjoy
