**CANCELLED** Auburn Kent Figure Eight Loop

Join us for a Sunday morning bike ride starting and ending at the Outlet Collection Mall (aka the Supermall) in Auburn. We will leave from Auburn and head north towards Kent riding on both roads and trails. Route link is below. The route can be downloaded to navigation programs. Please print yourself a cue sheet from the linked route if you would like one.

We'll meet  in the Wal-Mart parking lot at the corner furthest from store entrance and closer to the movie theater. Please zoom in on and refer to the point on the map of the start location, linked above, to see where in the parking lot we will meet. There are washrooms available in the Wal-Mart.  Please be ready to ride at the ride start time. We will start introductions and a safety briefing and we will begin riding when that's done.  Only riders who are there for the safety briefing @ 9:00 a.m. will be able to join us on the ride. 

New riders welcome! Please read our newcomer information linked above.

Pace is "steady"  - defined by the club at 12 to 14 miles per hour on flat terrain without wind and we expect riders to be able to sustain that effort for the duration of the ride. We will regroup after hills and before turns if we get spread out. There is a porta potty stop at Three Friends Fishing Hole at mile 12.3. Our rest stop will be at Panera Bread at Kent Station at mile 16.5. A third optional restroom stop is at Isaac Evans Park on Green River Road at mile 23.2.

Helmets are required. Some other suggested items to bring: supplies to fix a flat or other minor mechanical, ID, cash and/or credit card, a charged cell phone, a face covering, travel pack of kleenex and hand sanitizer, water and a small snack. Fenders on your bike please if roads are wet (or you may be asked to ride at the back).

Note: If weather conditions meet the weather cancellation criterion listed above or if there are unforeseen hazardous riding conditions, the Ride Leader will cancel the ride at least two hours before the ride start. Cancellation will be noted in the title of the ride and registered riders will be sent an email to the address attached to their Cascade account.  Please check here before leaving for the ride. 

We hope you can join us!
