Lake Sammamish Loop

Please join me for a ride around Lake Sammamish!

Beginning riders are extremely welcome! However, you should be prepared to maintain a Leisurely pace: 10-12 mph on level ground, and you should be prepared to ride about 20 miles on gently hilly terrain. If you get separated from the group, you may need to find your way back alone, so you should know how to read a cue sheet, or have the route loaded on a bike computer or mobile phone.

Rest stops: There is a restroom at the start, but there is no place to fill water bottles (it’s a portable restroom), so please do that before coming to the start. There are no planned rest stops but if it’s hot and people are low on water coming in to Issaquah we will stop for a refill. 

Weather: Showers will result in a cancellation, and the ride leader will post this information here at least two hours before the start of the ride. If showers start after that, we could still cancel at the start as well.

Wet roads: Please come with long fenders, including a buddy flap, if the roads are wet. Without them, you will be asked to ride in the back of the group.

Mechanical issues: You should also be prepared to change a flat tire, with tools, tubes and the ability to change the tire yourself. The group will generally not stop for repairs.

Registration: Please sign the electronic waiver above. This saves time at the start of the ride. Use the "Register" button, which will only be available after you log in.

Note: Please show up to the ride start at least 20 minutes early, so you can sign a waiver and ensure you are ready to go when we leave the starting point promptly at 6:00pm.
