Event has already happened.

We will meet on the front steps of the Lake City Public Library (12501 - 28th Ave. N.E., Seattle, WA  98125) for an urban ride to the University District Farmers Market.  Ride occurs the Saturday before Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas to search for pumpkins and other holiday fare.  Pastries and hot food are available for refueling before the return ride home.  Although some vendors accept credit cards, cash works with every vendor.  This is the ride for your load-bearing panniers/baskets and good urban bike locks!

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
