A mostly rural figure-8 ramble. We start with a warm-up southbound on the Sammamish River Trail to 145th, then ride over Hollywood Hill to Paradise Lake, Maltby, Fales Road, and Connelly Road. We'll return via Broadway, Maltby, and Bostian Road. Two long climbs, three bracing descents, the Paradise Valley Wall, and assorted rollers.
Route map and cue sheet are at the link. If you want a cue sheet, please print and bring it along.
No formal food stop, so bring sustenance for this distance to eat as we go. Restrooms and water at the start. Portapot at Heirman Wildlife Preserve/Mile 19.6.
Bring what you need to handle flats, and have a plan for rescue in case of a serious mechanical failure. If roads are wet, roostertails from bare tires are a safety issue for other riders. Fenders with long mudflaps show that you care.
Please RSVP for the ride by clicking on the red Register Now button at the top of this page.
If weather conditions meet the Showers Cancel criterion on the morning of the ride, I will post a ride-cancelled notice in Comments, below, at least two hours prior and not go to the start. Ice and snow also cancel. If the weather looks iffy, please check here before leaving for Woodinville.

"Wintry mix"--um, that's a no for me
Alas, the Woodinville area forecast as of 0710 says there will be showers along our route during the time we'd be riding it. With "wintry mix" added for sport. Not happening for me. Ride cancelled. Regrets.
