Gas Works, Magnuson, Carkeek, & Golden Gardens

Join us for a ride from Gas Works Park on a 29 mile route at 14-16 mph!

Come celebrate Presidents' Day by riding through several different parks in Seattle -- Gas Works, Magnuson, Carkeek, and Golden Gardens. The roads are relatively lightly trafficked but have some great views. This route is adapted from a popular route by COGS (Cyclists of Greater Seattle) led by John Lindseth.

Let's meet at Gas Works Park and please be ready to ride at 10am. Please arrive a few minutes early to ensure you are ready by 10. 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 frequently. We'll also limit our speed on any multi-use paths to the legal maximum (usually 15 MPH).

Restrooms are available at the start. We will stop along the way for restrooms at miles 9.7 and 23.4. 

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!
