Hills of the West Coast

We'll meet at Sam Smith Park at 8:30am, pick up riders at Enatai Beach Park (under east end of I-90 east channel bridge) at 9:00am, then pick up riders at Tibbetts Valley Park in Issaquah at 9:30am.

At each of the start locations, if any riders join us, I'll give a required safety briefing, and then we'll roll out when that's done.  If you miss the briefing you will not be able to ride with the group.

We'll climb Squak, and then Tiger, and then go out to Maple Valley.  We'll come back via Sweeney, 196th, Jones Road, and the Renton Highlands, adding the Licorice Fern hill off May Valley Road.   

There’ll be a very short food stop at the Hobart store, but please bring plenty of nutrition and two water bottles for this long hilly ride.

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.
