Summer Ride from Sumner to Kent

Join us for a ride from Sumner on a 45 mile route on a few trails and mostly roads at a steady pace (12-14 mph). We will ride north from Sumner through Pacific, Auburn and Kent. Once we reach Kent we will stop at Panera Bread for our coffee/snack break.

Please be at the start at the time listed above. We begin with a route briefing and safety talk, and roll out when that's done.  If you miss the briefing you will not be able to ride with the group. There's ample parking in the Fred Meyer parking lot in Sumner.

The ride is mostly flat with a few small short hills thrown in. 

Restrooms and water are available at the start inside the Fred Meyers. Again, our main stop is at Panera at mile 26.4, and there are optional restroom stops at miles 9.9 and 31.7. Make sure you have plenty to drink along the way, and plenty of sunscreen.

Bring a spare tube and tools to fix a flat, just in case, and have a plan for getting home or back to the start in case you or your bike are unable to finish the route.

PLEASE DON'T JOIN THE RIDE IF YOU ARE NOT FEELING WELL.

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!
