Please note: During COVID-19 restrictions, all Free Group Rides are limited in the number of allowed participants. Registration for the ride (using the red “Register Now” button above) is REQUIRED to participate. If you decide not to ride, please click the red "Cancel My Registration" button above so that an additional spot will be made available to another.

Face coverings (for mouth and nose) are required when the group makes extended stops. Face coverings are recommended for the duration of the ride. Please bring personal hand sanitizer, disinfecting wipes and tissues for use at rest stops.

We will observe current social distancing guidelines when off the bike, and strive to maintain at least 10-12ft separation between riders when on the bike.

New to group riding, or been off the bike for awhile? Maybe just looking to ease back into the cycling season with a relaxed roll up the Green River Valley? Come join me Sunday! We'll meet in the Auburn High School north lot (off of 4th St NE), and ride a mix of trails and quiet streets up to Kent, before meandering back south to our starting point. There are no restrooms at the starting point, but we will drop into Hogan Park at Russell Road at about the midpoint of the ride for a rest stop.

Please plan to be at the Auburn High about 15 minutes early, so we can get acquainted and go over our safety brief. 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.

See you on Sunday!
