We wouldn't yet call ourselves bicycle "enthusiasts," but we're getting there. We've started riding from work (downtown) to home (Shoreline) about three days a week and we're loving it.

The Spirit of Washington Dinner Train that goes from Renton to, well, Renton by way of the Columbia Winery in Woodinville is perilously close to having the track yanked from under it. Seattlest doesn't think that The Spirit of Washington Dinner Bus has quite the same ring, but if Ron Sims' plan of purchasing the 47 miles of track from Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway comes through the train might be out of business.
