Renton Comm Center to Soos Creek Trail

Today’s ride will put together the Cedar River Trail, 140th (long steep hill) to the Soos Creek Trail out and back.  We start at Renton Community Center and then ride up 140th, we will be using some cross walks and a small area on the side walk, so we need to be aware of pedestrians. We will regroup at the top of hills when needed.  Please be aware the speed limit between Renton Community Center and Ron Regis is 10mph, the pace of the ride is 10-12mph, we will climb hills at our own pace and stay about 11mph on the flats. 140th has a nice bike lane on both sides of the road.

Let's meet at Renton Community Center in Renton, near the restrooms, and please be ready to ride at 10:00am. We will start with a required safety briefing, and roll out when that's done.  If you miss the briefing you will not be able to ride with the group.

Restrooms are available at the ride start location.
