MUMPS is heading north again!
Note that the pace of the ride is Brisk instead of the usual Vigorous. The ride leader is recovering from a foot injury. If there is not a moderate group listed today, we will be riding and regrouping such that a fast moderate rider could keep up with us.
This Brisk ride heads north from Log Boom Park into Snohomish county, with a lunch stop en route. Route may be shortened if weather is bad. Ride leader will make the route available on ridewithgps.com by late afternoon of the day before the ride, search for "MUMPS 2016MMDD", where MMDD are the month and date of the ride (Mar 28 would be MUMPS 20160328). Since the RWGPS search function can take hours to reflect a new public route, it is better to check comments here (on cascade.org) for a link to the route. If in doubt, check here for cancellation due to weather on the morning of the ride.

Route
It looks like it is going to be dry tomorrow.
The route is a variation on our most common ride - we will ride north to Everett, then into Snohomish on the north side of the river. Return via Fales (the usual route up Welch/LostLake would add 5 more miles and a bit of climbing.) About 50 miles, 200 feet of climbing. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/13039027
