Two Points and a Levee Via Kent

Please join us for this fun, scenic and thrilling ride.  The ride will start at the Kent-James St P&R, and we'll head south to Federal Way via Green River Trail and Valley Hwy.  We'll have one major hill at Peasley Canyon on the way to Federal Way, then it's some fun rolling hills at Dash and Browns Points.  After the rolling hills, we'll enjoy the views of Mt. Rainier and Puget Sound and have a fun descent and more rolling hills on the way to Puyallup and Sunmer. We'll make a food stop at Starbucks in Sumner.  After the food stop, we'll have a relaxing ride on the flats; then we'll return to our cars.

The pace of this ride will be high-steady/low-moderate (13-15 mph on the flats assuming no wind).  If we have a headwind, the pace will be lower; if we have a tailwind, the pace may be higher.  Keep this in mind when deciding to do this ride.

Riders should bring a spare tube, tools and the know-how to fix a flat. Be sure to have sufficient water, snacks and raingear.  Please arrive at the start by 9:40 am for the safety briefing so we can roll promptly at 10:00 am.  There are no restrooms at the P&R; however we can make a short stop at the Kent Station, then proceed with the ride.

The ride leaders will not be at the ride start should inclement weather and unsafe road conditions meet the definition for cancellation (showers, steady rain). Ride cancellation will be announced in the Comments Section below and on Meetup at least two (2) hours prior to the ride start. If you have questions about the weather, please call 818-590-8167 or 206-399-8839, preferably before you leave for the ride.
