FOLDING BIKE?! ???????? Best Places to Bike in Seattle | Local Lens Seattle
It’s just like riding a bike!
We hit the road to try out some of the best areas to ride your bike in Seattle. And it wasn’t just any bike. It’s the CHANGE bike from A high performance commuter bike that folds up in seconds. It’s so small it can even fit in a SmartCar. With 24 gears this bike can take you up hills and cruising through the city.
So where should you take your family this summer? Kelly Hanson and Andrew Coleman Smith did some of the leg work (or rather pedal work) for you! ????????
????Alki Beach: A beautiful waterfront ride that’s great for all skill levels.
????Green Lake Park: a 3 mile loop that you can even bring your dog to.
????Seattle Urban Loop: Nearly 30 miles of all of the sights and sounds Seattle has to offer. Some highlights: Ballard Locks, University of Washington and Golden Gardens.
So hit the trails with some sweet wheels! has got you covered! Now biking made easier! ????????

Walking Tour of Downtown Seattle
Downtown is the central business district of Seattle, Washington. It is fairly compact compared with other city centers on the West Coast of the United States because of its geographical situation. It is hemmed in on the north and east by hills, on the west by Elliott Bay, and on the south by reclaimed land that was once tidal flats.

4K Green River Trail in Kent ,Washington South of Seattle
This was a subscriber request. The green river trail is in Kent, Washington, just south of Seattle.
We have to drive through there on our way home from the road trip so just took the opportunity to do this walk that was requested by a subsrcriber.
Unfortunately when I pressedthe button at one point it took a picture rather than video but managed to do nice walk there.
My videos are mostly first person view of walks, cities tours, tourist attractions, nature, hikes or anywhere I may be. Also can be used on a tread mill or stationary bike since I will also try to do bike rides. I only record ambient noise of the surroundings. This is especially good as an asmr feel, ideal for relaxing, studying and even sleeping as you just immerse yourself in the sounds. So at times I will also do nature sounds such as rain falling, creeks, falls, wind in trees etc… No vlogging here, sorry.
You won’t hear music during the walks, only in my beats videos. It’s one of the reason why i made this channel, when i searched videos on local hikes or walks, all I saw were the face of someone the whole time or music and not the actual trail or scenery itself. I just thought there was a lack of first person view of walks and hikes.
Hence the title of my channel Silence n beats, silence as in the quiet videos I like to do and beats because I produce beats that I like to share. If all you like is the walks you can see my playlist on walks and hikes and if you want to hear my beats, check out that playlist as well. I love music and making my beats, but after too much of it, I like long moments of silence.
Thank you for watching my videos and please subscribe as it will help motivate me in making more.
Enjoy

Let's Bike SR 520 Trail - Seattle to Velodrome
For my first big video of 2018, I decided to ride the entire SR 520 Trail from its western end in Seattle all the way to Redmond and the velodrome in Marymoor Park. I want to show how convenient it is to get from one end to the other.
The SR 520 Trail runs 11.1 miles alongside State Road 520 from the Seattle end of the Evergreen Point floating bridge to the Sammamish River Trail in Redmond. It is a paved trail that is street-free except for a 1.3 mile bike lane section in Bellevue and has rolling hills. Of course, at the end is Marymoor Park which features the Jerry Baker Memorial Velodrome, a cycling racetrack with banked curves that just has to be seen (and ridden, as you will see in my pathetic attempt).
The trail provides direct access between the cities of Seattle, Bellevue, and Redmond. Bike routes and trails that connect or run close to the SR 520 Trail include: Lake Washington Loop, Burke-Gilman Trail, Cross Kirkland Corridor, Bridle Crest Trail, Sammamish River Trail, Redmond Central Connector, Marymoor Connector, West Lake Sammamish Trail/Parkway Bike Route, East Lake Sammamish Trail, and Bear Creek Trail.
The SR 520 Trail also runs through the heart of Microsoft's headquarters and past the campus for Nintendo of America (I've always been a Nintendo fan).
Overlays and animations were created by me using Adobe Flash, Illustrator, and Photoshop. Final video was created in iMovie.
3D map flyover was created using Google Earth Pro.
All pictures were taken by me with my iPhone 6S on January 1, 2018.
All videos were taken by me with my iPhone 6S, ContourROAM3, and ContourROAM2 on January 1, 2018.
Footage is shown at normal and mostly 300% speeds.
Music played:
Get to Know by Joshua Iz from the album San Francisco Sessions, Vol. 6 (Unmixed) by Mark Farina
During the velodrome section: Mario Raceway from the Mario Kart 64 OST by Kenta Nagata at Nintendo
Seattle City Light and Latino Outdoors
Seattle City Light’s Environmental Equity Program advances social equity, environmental justice, and community-powered leadership on behalf of those most affected by environmental issues.
To learn more about Seattle City Light’s Environmental Equity Program, please see our 2016 Annual Equity Report at seattle.gov/light/wmbe
Video shot by Environmental Equity Program Manager
Christopher Peguero
A key principle underpinning the Environmental Equity Program is the recognition that people of color, immigrants and refugees, people with low incomes and individuals with limited English proficiency tend to be overburdened by health impacts from pollution and environmental issues.
One of the basic ways to transform these outcomes is to create opportunities for environmental justice communities to have access wilderness and natural spaces.
This focus brought a coalition of organizations to meet that opportunity September 22-24th, 2017. The coalition partners who came together were; Latino Outdoors, Seattle City Light, North Cascades Institute, North Cascades Environmental Learning Center, North Cascades National Park and the Greater Seattle YMCA’s Camping and Outdoor Leadership Program. The coalition hopes that this is the beginning of a long term program that continues to center Latino Communities to gain and increase access to the outdoors. Seattle City Light’s Environmental Equity Program is proud to be the main coalition builder and sponsor of this experience.
