That is a more choppy ride than the one from Muk to Whidbey...nice trip though.

My first thought was three...then I started thinking that a 180lb man doesn't weigh 180 in the water due to the body's water and fat content, but a 500lb (give or take) bike still weighs 500lbs.
Grrr now you have me pondering physics...and I'm no good at it! :P
Some math/physics whiz needs to give a good answer. Please.


Oh and 4NO99, love the Linda Ronstadt
