Ron Regis to Black Diamond Bakery
Ride Contact
Event has already happened.
The weather reports say we’re in for some sunshine, so it must be time to be outside! The ride starts at Ron Regis Park on SR169. There are restrooms at the start. We will start heading West, and take off towards Jones Rd to get some scenic rollers happening to warm up the legs. When Jones Rd ends, we will continue on the Cedar River Trail towards Maple Valley. At the end of the paved section of the trail the route then takes Dorre Don Way to head out over some more scenic areas with a few short sharp climbs, then on to some flatter sections as we arrive in Black Diamond and the Bakery. On the return it’s pretty much downhill as we follow Witte Rd and then back on the Cedar River Trail to Ron Regis Park.
Pace: We will ride within the posted pace (Brisk: 16 to 18mph) on the flats with an equivalent effort up hills. The Cedar River trail is 15mph, so this section will be at a lower pace. We will regroup at the top of significant climbs. If you plan to ride faster or slower, please come prepared to ride on your own so that the group does not have long wait times. Please print out the Cue Sheet and bring this with you.
Regroups/Mechanicals: This will be a social ride with waits at the top of significant hills and all major turns along the way. We will not stop for major 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. Restrooms are also available at the Black Diamond Bakery.
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 leader will not be at the ride start location.
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 and weather.
