Event has already happened.

 This is a reschedule of rained out earlier ride.  Next Thursday is supposed to be dry and it's a fun ride.  However rain still cancels.   We'll bike from Gasworks to Swansons Nursery to see flowers, evergreens, and reindeer and return via Golden Gardens.   Ride will include coffee at Swansons  It's mostly a steady but not steep climb to Swanson downhill on the return.  Leader bikes very slowly uphill.

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
