Yeah sure, but let me tell you biking from Ballard to Montlake on the Burke Gilman was awesome and easy. Now I live on Capitol Hill (Seattle) and don’t bike cause the climb is a killer.
- NotSammyHagar 7y agoYou can bike part way and put your bike on the front of a bus to go up a big hill. You can rent ebikes for pennies to go up the hill, you can get your own ebike for 500 bucks. All of these things apply to me too :-) I live by a big freaking hill, 300' up and whenever I ride I have to take a shower. If I had a flatter hill I'd ride my bike the 4 miles to the p&r a lot. Instead I drive my stupid car.
- bahmboo 7y agoEbike rentals aren't pennies. My last ride was $4 for about a mile. I was surprised.
- c22 7y agoI always bike to the UD or the ID (depending on what side of the city I'm on) then grab the light rail to Broadway station.
- acdha 7y agoBuy an e-bike: they’re perfect for daily commuting without that one hill being a disincentive.
- resonantjacket5 7y agoYeah Burke Gilman should get even better whenever the missing link is completed.
