Time for a fresh start for Washington Rider. What started as a simple website to help document a charity bicycle rider along the Columbia River, has morphed into a hobby site to share and showcase the beautiful Pacific Northwest, experienced via motorcycle touring.

That mission will continue. Over the years, the destinations have grown in distance, and the bikes have grown as well. A long time ago, I said that someday, maybe, I would have a stable of bikes, each best suited for a certain types of riders or trips. As of 2018, I am much closer to that goal. But the basic joy of riding remains. Finding the best route, to the best scenery, and to the best destinations in the PNW, is still the goal.

To the road ahead...
