Clueless in Bellevue
Here is what I asked of them: Take my stereo out of my old car and put it in my new car. Make sure to move the cable that I plug my MP3 player into as well.

Here is what I asked of them: Take my stereo out of my old car and put it in my new car. Make sure to move the cable that I plug my MP3 player into as well.
Sounds pretty simple right? Well not for these guys. Here is the short list of follies.
- a "45 minute" install took 3 hours.
- the argument that they charged me for a "kit" I did not need took over an hour... before I got my money back.
- sales rep didn't know what he was doing so he entered the wrong part #'s which made the return impossible to figure out.
- the sales rep didn't know how to do a return
- when all was said and done I got into my car to realize that the MP3 cable was no where to be found. This took another hour for them to install, they lost my cable and replaced it with a shorter one. Kinda sucks but I was happy to be out of there.
THESE GUYS ARE NOT PROFESSIONALS! They are clowns.

The club makes an obvious effort to be cool, and it sort of is. It's a small space, but they somehow cram a lot of gym in there. Full free weight setup, although I was all alone and in someone’s way when I was using them. The facility is setup for "new school" exercises, it's got a sand pit and hanging gymnastics rings, etc. When I look around the trainers also have all their clients doing plyometrics and balance drills for core strength - which are all the fad right now. The spin class was sub par. The instructor was very late, but apparently he's some famous cyclist. The class was called "Riding with Kenny". Kenny needs a watch. The Men's locker room was small, but included a sauna and good size showers. The staff seemed exceptionally nice. Everyone that works there smiles and says hello as if they are trained to do so, which made me feel right at home in my lycra.

This place rocks!

I just started going here. It's big, clean and has mass equipment; Two full free weight racks, more resistance and cardio machines than you can count. I’ve never waited for a piece of equipment at Sound Mind & Body. They also have a full basketball court, yoga studio, with separate rooms for cycling and aerobics classes. What I really like about this gym is the fact that ALL the classes are free. My last gym was the original “rich guy gym”, redonculously plush in ways only the fat and rich can appreciate and they still nickel and dimed ya by making you pay for a cycling, yoga or abs classes. The location of Sound Mind & Body doesn’t hurt either. It’s right next to the Fremont Bridge so as you spin, run or pump you get a beautiful view of the water with the boats floating by. Class A gym.

Pretty good Thai in Fremont

Kwanjai Thai is my go to Thai food restaurant... I typically get it to go although but sometimes I sit down. The food is good (not the best I’ve had), but they are fast and it’s convenient. Although pretty consistently good, I will occasionally get a “bad batch”. It’s not that it’s bad, but since I eat the same few meals a lot I can say that sometimes it seems to be heavily seasoned and sometimes it’s not… but this is rare, and not the norm. On average they are very good, friendly and I recommend them to anyone. Kwanjai herself is a little crazy but the rest of the staff are very nice.

This place sucks.. flat out. I’ve taken my car there twice and both times the estimates on price and when the car would be finished were much lower than what they ended up being. This last time my battery died. I asked them to “replace the battery”. But instead they did a full electronic analysys to “make sure it wasn’t an electronical issue”. This after I told them it “was the battery”. And of course I had to pay the $80 for the analysis – nonsense. So then I said stop right there, I’ll come put the battery in myself. I wanted them to do no more work on my car. When I got there it was raining – and they had left the window down. I assume this was because of our conversation about the car and the fact that I asked to speak to the manager – or maybe it was on accident.. but either way these guys are unprofessional rip off artists. Go somewhere else.

Best Gear Shop in Seattle

This is my shop. I buy everything at Second Ascent and I get my bikes worked on there. They have all the gear you need, and what they can't stock they will order for you. EVERY employee there is an experienced adventurer and can answer your questions, or find someone else there that can... unlike REI where it's hit or miss... mostly miss. If you are on a budget they also have the best used gear in the Seattle area - trust me I've looked.
They are privately owned and also sponsor a bunch of local adventure racing and cycling teams. This business is an asset to Seattle.

I got the Roosevelt: toasted turkey and Tillamook cheddar with pesto – top notch. The store also has all sorts of fancy cheeses/oils/meats/wines/chocolates and assorted cooking items. The staff was friendly and they have a table in the back to eat your grub. I think I’ve found my new sandwich shop.
