Mid Week Winter Ride
Ride Contact
Event has already happened.
It's winter, yes it's cold and it rains but when a window opens, (a day without rain), you have to grab the opportunity and ride. So for all you fair weather riders, like me, if there isn't any rain for this Wednesday come out and join me for a very social ride from Renton's Old City Hall to Panera Bread in Maple Valley. It is an out and back with one climb, a few rollers and many flat sections. The hill will get you nice and warm, the rollers will keep you warm and the flats will be nice for practicing pace. 15.5 miles to our rest stop at Panera Bread. We will stop for a 20 minute break before heading back to Renton.
Please arrive at least 15-20 minutes before the ride start at 10 AM so you can get your bike and yourself ready and hear the S.M.A.R.T. talk (safety briefing).
There are restrooms at the Renton Community Center along the Cedar River Trail. We will stop for those of us who may need to use the facilities.
New riders are welcome, but please review the link below. Riders should be able to maintain the pace and know how to change a flat tire (and carry the equipment to do so).
Come prepared to fix flats and have a plan for dealing with mechanical issues. Generally the group will not wait for flats/mechanical issues so make sure you know the route or have printed a CUE sheet.
Please register for the ride by clicking on the red Register Now button at the top of this page, click the waiver release box, complete the Emergency Contact Number, and click on Save. By doing this you will save time at the ride start. If you are unable to attend you do not need to "un-register."
Please check here on Wednesday morning by 8 am to see if the ride is a go. If it is raining I will post by 8 that the ride is canceled and the ride leader, me, will not be at the start.
