Start at Log Boom Park / Tracy Owen Station (Bothell Way and 60th Pl NE)  in Kenmore.  Bathrooms are available at the start, at 8, and 20 miles into the ride.  We will ride clockwise around Lake Washington through Juanita, Kirkland, Medina, Bellevue and Beaux Arts before stopping for lunch on Mercer Island.  We’ll then cross the bridge to Leschi and continue back to Log Boom through the Arboretum and on the Burke-Gilman trail.  There are a few gentle hills and a couple of short but steep ones.  We will regroup at the tops if necessary.  Please arrive at the start  early enough to prepare yourself for a 10 a.m. departure.

What Pace Means

Pace classification indicates the intended range of speeds on level ground without breaks. This means downhill sections of the ride may be faster, and uphill sections slower.

Note: For rides with a “hilly” terrain classification, consider choosing a pace one step down from your usual comfort level.
Terrain
Some Hills

What Terrain Means

Terrain indicates the most common or average terrain type of the ride and should be considered relative to the length and overall difficulty of the ride. For example, a long-distance ride with a lot of elevation gain will be overall less challenging than a short ride with equal elevation gain. Consider the pace and frequency of regroup as well to understand how advanced a ride may be.

  • Mostly flat: Trails and/or mostly flat roads with a possible gentle uphill
  • Rolling: Climbs are short and easy, not too numerous
