Cycling around Spokane

After exploring around Republic, WA and the National Recreation campsite at Hunters along the Columbia River (aka: Lake Roosevelt), we headed to Spokane, where we stayed in the city's campground on the Spokane River.

The first day we rode our bikes to REI, which wasn't too far away and really quite a nice ride.  The next day we pedaled some of the Centennial Trail which is paved, at least one large lane wide and mostly along or near the River.  It's a long trail and we only did part of it.  More for another visit.

Then it was up to Sullivan Lake where we spent a couple of hours riding along the Lake.  Wildlife: some mergansers and a black bear swimming across the Lake.

Then it was off over Kootenay Pass and on to Creston where Catherine managed to beat her best time in the 10 km.
