Buckley Backroads and Beyond (Loop)

Join us for a ride from The Gathering Place located at 234th and Entwhistle in Buckley, WA on a 38.8 mile ride route at vigorous pace (18-20 mph).

This ride is mostly back roads except two segments on 410.    

Let's meet at the Gathering Place at 10411 234th Ave E in Buckley, WA at 0930.  It is ok to park in the gravel lot at the Gathering Place. 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.

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

Restrooms are not available at the start. We have no planned stops along the way. There are bathrooms at mile 8 (Pinnacle Peak Park) and 28.6 (a gas station just prior to crossing HWY 164).  Please bring adequate hydration and nutrition for this ride.

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!
