This cyclist was enjoying the scenery at quite a good pace along a winding road near Deception Pass, despite the weight of his gear. Would you feel comfortable riding that narrow ribbon of the shoulder's edge when larger vehicles pass next to you?

I typically ride Deception Pass at least once a year. That section is pretty hairy alright. To be frank, our group (7 - 10 riders) goes across taking up the lane. It slows the cars up for three or four minutes, but we survive that way.
@ Scott: You guys are wise to ride together and "own" the road when you need to. This fellow was all by his onesie and held his own well. When those big trucks go by, though, I'd be afraid of being blown off into the ditch :-).

But the car is a Prius. Of course. How much more NW eco-friendly can you get?
We've been to deception pass a time or two. Darkly, dangerously beautiful.
