Day 3 - June 21, 2011

Waking up bright and early as usual we started out the morning with a light breakfast and continued our ride to Oak Harbor, a decent town nothing too different from Bieberton. After Quiznos we went to the local bike shop to fix Hanks bottom bracket. Remounting our mechanical steads, 5 miles into our ride we found that what was suppose to be an easy and quick ride turned into in a very long one. Speeding through the flats, Hank, Donald and Evan stopped at an Ice cream shop in the farm lands west of burlington. Finsihing our two scoop waffle cones we waited for another 30 mintues. No sign of Kane or Beau. Getting worried, Hank started to backtrack to make sure no major mechanical issues were happening. Finding that kane had flatted twice in 500 feet, We sprinted to the Skagit Cycle shop in burlington to purchase a new rear tire. Finding Specialized Armadillo Multi Purpurse tires made Hank's mustache curl. With a Large smile he bought the tires and mounted them onto the cannondale. As this was happening donald got his second flat of the day. Making the trips total flats a large seven for 3 days. That night Hank really started to teach everyone some machanical basics, like properly changing a tire and adjusting front and back derailuers, and stuff like that. Eventually our long tedious day ended in a good nights rest for the next days ride.
