Seattle's Crappiest Bus Route.
http://www.transitriders.org ...
i just took the 8 from mt baker transit center to top of capitol hill. not a bad route except for the thoroughly idiotic left turn at MLK/Jackson where it makes a loop over to 23rd, then cuts back up to MLK a block later and makes a left turn against heavy traffic. adds at least 5 minutes to the journey. no point to that milk run.

McGinn vs. Mallahan.
we had to suspend the "drink when mallahan says 'move forward'" rule in our house because of the drunken carnage that resulted last time. joe mallahan: the human drinking game.

McGinn vs. Mallahan, Part III.
why does mallahan keep saying "thanks for listening"? didn't his campaign staff tell him those big things pointed at him are tv cameras?

Chief Sealth Trail.
btw if you insist on riding the sealth, try this - take light rail to beacon hill, ride to the trailhead, then ride downhill on the trail to near the end - to the rainier beach sta. catch the train back to beacon hill, and repeat.
little to no uphill
trains
but you'll also probably get bored after doing it only a couple times

Chief Sealth Trail.
i'm sorry, but that trail is pure suck
i was excited about its possibilities too but it really is unpleasant
ride light rail to tukwila, bomb down s 154th under i-5, switch to the north sidewalk along southcenter blvd, and hop on the green river trail/interurban trail for a nice, flat loop with not too much traffic, etc. the green river trail will be closed to cyclists very soon (until flood season is over), so do it while you can.
