Gas Works Park to Alki

Join us for a ride from Gas Works Park on a 30 mile route at a steady pace (12 -14 mph) to Alki Beach!

This ride will cross the Fremont Bridge, follow the Ship Canal Trail, thru Terminal 91 trail to the Seattle Waterfront. We will continue along the waterfront out to Alki Beach and take a break once we reach the halfway point near the Lady Liberty statue at Alki.  We will return to Gas Works Park along the same route.

Let's meet at the Gas Works Park and please be ready to ride at 9:00 am. 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, (although this is mostly a flat route) and our goal will be to stay together.  We'll also limit our speed on any multi-use paths to the legal maximum (usually 15 MPH) and give priority to pedestrians or walkers, especially in groups.

Restrooms are available at the start. We will stop along the way for restrooms/water at the fishing pier about halfway to Alki Beach.  We’ll also stop for coffee/snacks at Starbucks at mile fifteen.

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!
