It's time to Ride Around Seattle!  We'll start at Newport Hills Park & Ride (I-405 off exit 9) and ride over to Enatai Beach Park for a quick bathroom break before riding across Mercer Island for the start of our Seattle Tour.  We'll hit Leschi, the Arboretum, Gas Works, Fremont, Magnolia and then head around the waterfront trail by Elliott Bay over to Beacon Hill and down to Seward Park.  We'll grab a coffee and a bite to eat in Magnolia at the Home of the Velvet Foam.  This is a fun ride with lots to see.  Ride leader mentoring opportunity available.  

In case of bad weather, the ride leader will not be at the start and will post the cancellation here at least 2 hours prior to the ride start.

Hi, guys.  Due to work issues and the heat, I've shortened the route a bit (It's now 40 miles).  Here it is:
