Event has already happened.

On these early fall days before cold weather sets in, few things are as satisfying as a bike ride and a big dish of gourmet, ultra-premium ice cream! You can experience BOTH on our Moderate Pace ride from Renton to Molly Moon's Homemade Ice Cream Shop in U. Village. The map, cue sheet and route profile are here: http://ridewithgps.com/routes/5327271. Riders should print the cue sheet and have a spare tube, tools and the know-how to fix a flat. Please arrive by 9:45 am for the safety briefing so we can roll at 10:00 am. Toilets are located near the parking area.

The ride leader will not be at the ride start should weather meet the definition for cancellation (showers). Ride cancellation will be announced in the Comments Section at least two (2) hours prior to the ride start. If you have questions about the weather, please call 206-909-7742, preferably before you leave for the ride.

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
