Washington is the final destination on this journey. I'll be flying out of the Seattle-Tacoma airport on Vanguard Airlines on August 22 headed for Pittsburgh. Vanguard permits bicycles on their flighs for a $25 handling fee which is much cheaper than other airlines.

Depending on when I arrive on the coast I may have to head directly for Seattle. If time permits I'll ride to Vancouver, BC and back to Seattle, using different routes for each leg.
