Distance and timing basis
Ordered leg totals agree within rounding. Stop distances are approximate sums of rounded legs. Stops, delays, approach and any separate return travel add time. Basis: producer-declared routed record.
Reading history stays on this device. My road watch requires a separate selection; opening it does not subscribe this ride.
Distance and riding time are measured on the routed road. Check local closures and conditions before you ride.
Waypoint introductions and full write-ups
1. Seattle
Seattle runs on water. The city is squeezed between Puget Sound on the west and Lake Washington on the east, and is cut through by canals and bridges, so that every day involves a shore of some kind. Elliott Bay holds the working waterfront, with the ferry terminal at Colman Dock and the old piers, and ferries still carry commuters and tourists to Bainbridge Island and Bremerton, past a skyline that looks best from the deck.
