COOS #8 Sumner - Black Diamond and Enumclaw (brisk)

Welcome to Cycling Out Of Sumner, a Brisk-paced series of 13 Sunday rides increasing in distance and elevation.

Ride #8  goes north out of Sumner, climbs up to Black Diamond, races back down into the valley and climbs again to the Enumclaw plateau. You'll be challenged with a couple good long climbs with the reward of fun downhills. 

If you are new to group riding, please review the Cascade newcomer info: http://www.cascade.org/welcome-newcomers.

Restrooms at the start.

Mentoring available with prior notice, contact ride leader.

Bring all tools and tubes needed to fix a flat.

Rest stop: Black Diamond Bakery

Please be courteous to your fellow riders and arrive at least 20 minutes prior to the start to prepare your bike, listen to the ride briefing and allow us to leave on time.

Cue sheets will not be provided, please print one if desired. Regroups will be as needed and at the top of major hills. We will wait a reasonable amount of time but in the interest of the group we may not be able to wait an extended period of time.

Preregistration is available and saves you time at the start by not having to fill out the waiver form, simply check your name off when you arrive at the ride. Sign in with your Cascade user account, click on the register button and fill out the information. Remember to save.

In the event of a cancellation, Ride Leader will post a cancellation in the comments section two hours prior to the start. Ride Leader will not be at the start if cancelled.
