Short Moderate Coffee out of Silver Lake

Whether you’re going for your official Coffeeneuring patch, or you just want something warm and tasty (or cold, we won’t judge) in the middle of your ride, come join us! This ride will dip into the Snohomish Valley, then go north towards Everett. We'll do some climbing near Mukilteo to get to our coffee stop at the Red Door at mile 14, then head over to Paine Field before returning to the park.

The pace for this ride is Moderate (14-16mph on the flats). We will adjust for a similar effort in the event of hills, headwinds, or poor weather. We will regroup as necessary at major intersections and at the tops of hills, but please be prepared to be independent in the event of a mechanical issue.

This ride will go in the rain, but ice, snow, very hard rain, or other inclement weather may cancel the ride at the leader’s discretion. If the ride is canceled before 7:30am, it will be noted in the comments section on the Cascade website, and the leader will not be at the start. If there is rain in the forecast, please consider long fenders and mudflaps. Those who arrive unprepared may be asked to ride at the back of the group.

Other expectations:

• Please arrive 15-20 minutes prior to the ride start to allow time for sign-in and a pre-ride S.M.A.R.T. briefing.

• There will be no cue sheets at the start; please bring your own and/or load the route to your GPS.

You are encouraged to pre-register by clicking the red "Register Now" button above. There is no need to unregister if you decide not to ride.

Note: If weather conditions meet the weather cancellation criterion listed above or if there are unforeseen hazardous riding conditions, the Ride Leader will post a ride-canceled note in the Comments section below at least two hours prior to the start and Ride Leader(s) will not be at the start location.

We hope you can join us!
