Biking 200 miles on the Seattle to Portland Bike Ride! | STP Day 1

I got to head out to the Pacific Northwest this summer and check out a ride I have heard SO much about - Seattle to Portland! This is such a welcoming, well-organized, fun event that results in a HUGE milestone - back to back centuries! Check out the video to see the people, stops, and scenery!

I'm so amazed that someone so little could do that

[@cariburk1657]

My friend and I did this. Such a cool event. In fact our photo was on the table at the photo booth tent at station one. I feel famous now! 😁

[@laurippt]

And I’m the friend Cari was mentioning. I also made a video slideshow from the weekend! Thanks for sharing your video! I enjoyed it!

[@RedHeadAgent]

Look at that lake! I say it all the time, but I'm going to say it again.....I love your joy! Riding 100 miles with your enthusiasm would feel like a quick trip around the neighborhood.

Nice recap of day one.❤ My first century years ago was Day 1 of STP. My second century was Day 2.😂 Before all that, I was stationed at Ft Lewis. Go Army👍 I am sorry I didn't get to meet you in Portland. I looked, but never saw you. I enjoy your channel. Cheers 🌞🚴‍♀️🖖

[@KevDoes]

You were there? Oh no! I would have loved to meet you! Do you live in Portland full-time?

[@andrew_gardner]

That was a C-17 Globe Master probably flying in or out of Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Washington

[@KevDoes]

Super cool! thank you

[@tysonbell5714]

Johnny G on the BMX is a beast

[@KevDoes]

[@blaze1148]

I've just done _Chase The Sun_ in the UK.....205 miles coast to coast Sunrise to Sunset [beat the Sun]....started @ 04.40 and I finished @ 19.15 so I beat the Sun by 2 hours 15 mins 😊 One day I want to ride 300 miles in a day....a few years training away from that atm tho. 😉

[@KevDoes]

200 miles in one day??? Wow congratulations! That sounds like a super cool event

[@jamesfearn]

Great video with good insight, information, and vibe for the ride. Thanks!

[@KevDoes]

Thank you so much James! Glad you liked it

[@oregonziggy2391]

Did STP in 2013 and 2014. Loved it. plan to do it again in the next year or two.

[@KevDoes]

ah awesome! It's such a cool event

[@wp40]

[@KevDoes]

Such a pleasure riding with you too

[@jasonbisson7940]

Wow! You're a blast! Love that great energy you brought to the ride. I did it in 1 day. Would've been great to have someone like you around for the morale boost!

[@KevDoes]

You did it in one??? Oh my goodness congratulations that sounds like it's so intense!

[@trevorwild195]

Can't wait for Day 2 Kelvin!

[@Inboundskier]

You’re good!! Move to Seattle! Need a great producer here!

[@KevDoes]

Once the prices come down a bit ill consider it 😅

[@avocado.cyclist]

God Wish I was there!

[@KevDoes]

Come out next year!

[@grantcarroll4389]

Looks like a lot of fun! I just moved to Seattle and did my longest ride of 55 miles. What are the chances I’d be successful on this trip?

[@wp40]

My longest ride prior to STP was 40 miles. Train if you think you need to, and on the day of just take it one rest stop at a time.

[@oregonziggy2391]

I did it in 2013 and 2014. I had ridden one 100 mile ride prior. But mostly 20-45 mile rides.

[@KevDoes]

Honestly, if you did 55 you can do this. It just depends how much you want to hurt when completing the 100 miles. The more fit you are going in to the event the easier it will be

[@KevDoes]

Good strategy. Break it up into smaller trips

[@KevDoes]

Solid!

[@Hawkeye948]

Very nice event. How did you transport your lugadge ?

[@KevDoes]

They have free transport from day to day!

[@kharrell8356]

great support available, that's great. COVID cough BRO, take care.

[@KevDoes]

So I found out that's what it was... I didn't know and thought it was just a little cold

[@epiiiiiii]

200 miles with Covid 😂

[@KevDoes]

Real talk, I wasn't aware that it was making a resurgence. Turns out that's what it was 😓

[@bennetthasty7886]

Looks awesome but 2 100 mile days is a lot especially if you don’t feel good

[@KevDoes]

It was a lot indeed 😅

[@VietPho]

17:00 what 1 lb chair is that and where can we buy?

[@KevDoes]

amzn.to/3Wuqps1 Link right here!

[@seagulls4life12]

If you don’t do it in one day it doesn’t count

[@KevDoes]

Yeah lol ok
