This ride starts at War Memorial Park and goes to Fox Island, Gig Harbor and Pt. Defiance (see link below for GPS map). A mandatory safety briefing will be conducted at 0845 under the covered area. We will depart promptly after the briefing. No cue sheet will be provided. This ride is scenic and very hilly.
If the ride is canceled it will be noted in the comment section two hours prior to the start and the Ride Leader will not be at the start.
Make sure you bring bike fenders, adequate hydration, nutrition and funds in case we stop for coffee. Have tools and tube to fix a flat. Have the gps course downloaded if you do not know the route and a bail out plan in the event you cannot finish the ride
Stops: There will be a bathroom/water/picture stop at the Fox Island Fishing Pier. One more bathroom stop at Pt. Defiance Zoo.
