Join us for a nice bike ride at a moderate pace from Newport Hills to Black Diamond via Cedar River trail, Dorre Don Way SE & Ravensdale. We will have a short lunch break at the bakery in Black Diamond. We will ride back via Lake Sawyer, Maple Valley, Maxwell Rd, Cedar Grove & SE May Valley Rd. This is one of the prettiest routes I've been on all year! Ride leader mentoring opportunity available.
Regroups/Mechanicals: This is a social ride, so we will stop for mechanical issues as necessary. Please come prepared with the necessary equipment you need to take care of flats or other problems.
Cancellation Policy: In the event of a weather cancellation, a notice will be posted in the comments on this page at least two hours before the ride and the ride leader will not be at the ride start location. If questionable, you can also contact the ride leader using the provided contact information.
Please make sure to arrive at least 20 minutes before the ride start so you can get prepared to roll out at the posted time, sign a waiver, and hear the ride briefing. As is required with all Cascade rides, please ensure you wear a helmet and come prepared with gear that is comfortable and appropriate for the weather, and distance/elevation.
