Join us for a social, hilly ride on bike friendly roads and trails in Kirkland and Bothell. The ride begins with a short warmup climb of Forbes Creek and then through neighborhoods to another climb on Juanita Drive. We'll regroup before turning to tour the neighborhoods of Big Finn Hill. Our descent brings us to Blythe Park for restrooms and water before continuing through the UW Bothell campus and then North Creek. We will stop briefly to visit with the ducks and geese at Big Duck Pond before returning to Bothell for our lunch stop (mile 24.8) at Starbucks or Potbelly in Beardslee Crossing. We then return thru downtown Bothell and back up Waynita and Market to Crestwoods. There are hills, but we ride them at our own pace and always regroup at the top; everyone will get a workout. Restrooms available at start.
Park at south end of parking lot. Please arrive in time to be ready to leave at the start time, 1000.
