Free Group Ride
Seattle Pastry Rides: Larsen's Bakery (Moderate)
Event has already happened.
It’s almost fall … time to start riding for pastries! Come join us in our ongoing quest to find the best pastries on the Puget Sound. This week, we will ride out of Lower Woodland parking lot (aka south of Green Lake). We will head north to Edmonds via NE Seattle, Lake Forest Park, and Shoreline. On the way back south, we will hit a few hills in Woodway, Richmond Beach, and Carkeek Park. This ride is hilly, but a bakery stop at Larsen's will make all the huffing and puffing worth it! We will have a short ride back to the start after the bakery stop.
Pace: Please note, we will ride within the posted pace on the flats with an equivalent effort up hills. If you plan to ride faster or slower, please come prepared to ride on your own so that each pace group does not have long wait times.
Regroups/Mechanicals: This will be a social ride with waits at the top of hills and all critical turns along with photo op stops along the way. We will not stop for mechanical issues. Please come prepared the necessary equipment you need to take care of flats or other problems on your own. Please print a cue sheet from the route link in the event that you get separated from the group.
Rest Stops: There are restrooms at the start. We will have a short stop at Edmonds City Park at mp 18. The bakery stop at Larsen's Bakery is at mp 33.8.
Requirements: Please make sure to arrive at least 20 minutes before the ride start so you can get prepared to roll out at the posted time, sign a waiver, and hear the ride briefing. As is required with all Cascade rides, please ensure you wear a helmet and come prepared with gear that is comfortable and appropriate for the distance/elevation.
RSVP: Please RSVP for the ride either here or on Meetup if you have an account, so we can plan for the appropriate number of Ride Leaders. Meetup is a great place for ride discussions and sharing photos after the ride.
Cancellation Policy: In the event of a weather cancellation, a notice will be posted in the comments on this page at least two hours before the ride and the ride leaders will not be at the ride start location.
Start Location Notes: Bathrooms at start. Lower Woodland Playfields parking lot is on west of Green Lake Way N. The cross street is N 52nd St.
