FRIDAY RIDERS: Visit the New Totem Lake Bridge

Join us for a ride from Wayne Park Bothell on a 21.8 mile route at leisurely pace at 10-12 MPH! The highlight of the ride will be cycling on the Totem Lake Connector Bridge!

Enjoy a ride with a variety of terrain combining two trails and Kirkland roads with some hills. There is free parking and a portable toilet available at the start. Leave the Sammamish River trail at the Wayne Park Bothell and head uphill on Kirkland roads leading to the downtown Kirkland waterfront. We will climb and descend hills at our own pace, and our goal will be to regroup occasionally. We will cycle 5 miles on the flat compact dirt/gravel Cross Kirkland Corridor trail suitable for all tires. The group will break at Starbucks at Houghton Center for coffee and a social at mile 9.7. We'll cycle on the newly constructed Totem Lake Connector pedestrian/bike bridge. Transition to the flat, paved and scenic Sammamish River trail and head north toward Bothell. There are restrooms and water available at Wilmot Gateway Park in Woodinville. From there, it's back to the Wayne Park Bothell and the start of the ride. 

Riders are responsible for their own equipment repairs. Please bring your own tools and spare tube to fix a flat. Helmets are required!
