We will leave from the Sumner Fred Meyer parking lot. The east side of the parking lot next to the garden center and ride to Black Diamond Bakery for coffee and pastries before heading back.

Restrooms at start.

Steady rain cancels. If weather is questionable please check the ride information site for updates. I will announce cancellation in the comments section below at least 2 hours prior to the ride start. You may also email or text me.

Please arrive early enough so you have ample time to get your bike ready, hear the SMART briefing, and sign the ride waiver. Remember, we roll at 9:00 AM. Please print a cue sheet if so desired.

RSVP not required but is appreciated.

Pace

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
  • Some hills: A few short, steep hills, some moderate upgrades and/or longer gentle climbs
  • Hilly: Consistent or continuous climbing
  • Off-road: Significant unpaved sections
