Marymoor-Duthie Hill-Carnation-Redmond Ridge

A mostly rural loop ride out of Redmond, across the Sammamish Plateau, down Duthie Hill Road into the Snoqualmie River Valley, and back via Carnation, Union Hill, and Redmond Ridge.  Two good climbs, two fast descents, assorted rollers, and a long flat run through the fields and along the river from near Fall City to Ames Lake Road.  

Please be ready to ride by 15 minutes before start time so we can do the safety briefing and get on the road.  Route map and cue sheet are at the Link, below.  If you want a cue sheet, please print it.  Bring spare tube, tools, patch kit, and skills to fix flats, and have a phone and a plan for rescue if your bike fails.  If roads are wet, roostertails from bare tires are a safety issue for other riders.  Fenders with long mudflaps show that you care.  

No formal food stop, but we'll pause at the Carnation Starbucks for relief and refreshment along the way.  Porta-pot but no water at the start.  Restrooms and water at Beaver Lake/Mile 10, Carnation/Mile 22.5, and Redmond Ridge Park/Mile 38.2.  

Please RSVP by clicking on the red Register Now button at the top of this page.  Then put a checkmark in the waiver release box and click on Save.  By doing this you will save time at the ride start.  Note that this on-line RSVP requires a Cascade Bicycle Club account, which is easy to set up, but if you don't want one just come anyway and sign the hard-copy attendance/hold harmless sheet.  

The listed phone number won't be answered on the morning of the ride.  If weather conditions meet the Showers Cancel criteria, I will post a ride-cancelled notice in Comments, below, two hours prior and not go to the start.  Ice or snow also cancel.  Please check here before leaving for the ride.
