Eastside Hills #5

Join us for a ride of some great hills, starting from downtown Woodinville!   The total distance will be 63 miles and we'll ride at a vigorous pace (18 - 20MPH) on the flats.  Our route includes five challenging hills:  Hollywood hill, Fales Road, Big Rock Road, Union Hill Road, and Kingsgate.  Along the way we get to ride some pleasant country roads in the Samammish River Valley.  This ride will give your legs a good workout and it should be fun.

Let's meet at the Woodinville Sports Fields Parking Lot at 8:00.  After our pre-ride safety briefing we will depart promptly. If you miss the briefing you will not be able to ride with the group. 

We will climb and descend hills at our own pace, and our goal will be to regroup at the top of each hill. We'll also limit our speed on any multi-use paths to the legal maximum (usually 15 MPH).

Restrooms are available at the start. We will stop along the way for restrooms/water at the Safeway in Duvall at about mile 30. 

Bring a spare tube and tools to fix a flat, just in case. Please have full fenders if the roads are wet, or you may be asked to ride at the rear of the group.

Note: If weather conditions meet the weather cancellation criterion listed above or if there are unforeseen hazardous riding conditions or other unexpected events, 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!
