Day 4: A Quiet Day in Washington on Rail Trails

Day 4: Alternate route of Olympia, WA to Winlock, WA. 58.0 miles, 1,408 ft. of climbing, (93.3 km, 429 m)
I visited with my friend and his family in Olympia before starting out mid-day, so I didn’t plan on travelling as far (especially since the day before had been such a long ride).  Very little of the ride was on the Adventure Cycling route other than near the towns of Centralia and Chehalis.  As far as the ride, this was almost a rest day given the nature of the route I took.  I rolled out of Olympia on the Chehalis Western Trail and then onto the Yelm – Tenino Trail, both of which were paved converted rail-trails.  

I then continued on rural roads to Winlock and stayed at the nearby Ranch House B&B.  This day was mostly a very peaceful, quiet, scenic ride given the use of the rail-trails.
