Bainbridge Island Bike Museum

Seattle Skyline from the ferry

Bainbridge Island

Visiting relatives in Seattle this week... took a ferry out to Bainbridge island for some kitchy shopping and wandering. Passed a bike shop en route to a store the lovely Mrs. 2wheel wanted to check out. Cool. I'll have to check out Classic Cycles a bit later when she's knee deep in the yarn store.

Walk in a little while later and thought "hey... nice shop." They have some old bikes up on the wall to my left, and an assortment of Treks, Specialized, and the like on the floor. "Hey... those are really NICE old bikes." See a sign in the back labeled "Bike Museum". Oh snap... I'm in heaven!

Spent the rest of the morning oooohing and aaaahing over some really cool bikes. Enjoy the show, and consider this my making up for not blogging in so long.
