FEATURED STORY
Sea to Sound: A Ride for Everyone

A journey across the Olympic Peninsula where bicycles, wheelchairs and adaptive riders share the trail—and the experience.

WHY SEA TO SOUND

“The trail belongs to everyone.”

Sea to Sound brings people together to experience the Olympic Peninsula in a way that feels welcoming to everyone. Bicycles, adaptive cycles, manual wheelchairs and power wheelchairs share the same trail, moving through forests, communities and some of the most beautiful scenery in the region.

For me, the experience was about more than completing the ride. It was a chance to reconnect with nature, meet an extraordinary community of riders and volunteers, and discover just how much becomes possible when access is built into the experience.
