Event has already happened.

Please join Eastside Rail Corridor advocates and local officials for an easy ride along the Eastside Rail Corridor. Ride along and learn about issues and future plans for this amazing project. This is a great ride for people new to biking—flat and entirely on the trail, with stops along the way. You'll experience an easy group ride and learn about the advocacy that  goes goes into developing fabulous places to ride. We'll ride along the trail, stop at the Google Campus before making our way to Totem Lake where we'll turn around. The end of the ride is at Chainline Brewing for happy hour and continuing talk.

We'll leave right after the Eastside Rail Corridor Rail Removal Commemoration, at 2:00pm.

Pace
Easy: [Under 10mph]

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
Mostly Flat

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
