Whidbey Island Realtor participates in STP





Whidbey Island Real Estate agent, John Adkins, from Coldwell Banker Koetje Real Estate, will be riding his bicycle in the Seattle to Portland Bicycle Classic this year for the first time. He will be doing the ride with a group of 8 riders, all from Whidbey Island or family members of folks from Whidbey Island. The event is a major fund raiser for many organizations.

The Seattle to Portland Bicycle Classic, or STP, is an annual one and two day supported bicycle ride from Seattle, Washington to Portland, Oregon in the United States. The STP "is considered one of the 10 biggest recreational bicycle rides in the country, drawing riders from across the nation and from other nations", and has been operating for more than 25 years. It is approximately 200 miles (322 km) in length. Most riders complete the distance in two days; however, about 15% complete the ride in one day. The event sold out with over 10,000 registered to participate.
