Join us for a ride from the East Lake Sammamish Trailhead in Redmond on a 21 mile route at 12-14 mph!

This is a great ride for those who have been riding in 10-12mph group and want to check out the 12-14mph waters.

Come see the beauty of the East Lake Sammamish Corridor as we travel from Redmond to Issaquah mostly on the flat East Lake Sammamish Trail and make our return trip mostly via the East Lake Sammamish Parkway to get a couple rolling hills. We'll have a brief coffee stop at Issaquah Coffee Company at the midpoint of our ride. There is a short section of well-packed gravel on the East Lake Sammamish Trail.  **Note: depending on road or trail construction, weather and/or wind conditions the route may be slightly changed in some locations; the ride leader will make that decision at the ride start or during the ride if necessary and notify riders as needed.  

Let's meet at the East Lake Sammamish Trailhead behind Whole Foods in Redmond and please be ready to ride at 10 AM. We will start with a required safety briefing, then 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 stay together.

Sanican is available at the start; water/restrooms are close by at Whole Foods. We will stop at our midpoint of the ride (10.5 miles) at Issaquah Coffee Company for coffee/snacks/water/restrooms.

Please be prepared to handle mechanical issues: a tube/patch and tools to fix a flat; a mobile phone and plan for "rescue" if needed.  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!
