Honor the Blue, join us on a mostly flat 26 mile ride in honor of fallen Police Officers. The ride will begin at the Tukwila Community Center making its way over to Alki and back. Along the way we will make 3 (5 – 10 min) stops, at each stop we will have a short reading by a member of the Federal Reserve Police Force in honor of Police Officers who gave their lives in the line of duty.

Restroom: At the start, Tukwilla Community Center,  Mile 10 Joe Block Park

Arrive at least 30 minutes early so that you can get yourself ready, sign the waiver, and listen to the S.M.A.R.T. briefing. This allows us to have an on-time departure.

Be considerate and have full fenders including mud flaps if roads are wet or a prediction of rain is in the forecast, or ride in the back.

A route map and cue sheet are on the Ride With GPS link, below. If you want a cue sheet please print and bring it. The ride leader will not have extra copies.

Cancellation Policy: If needed, a weather cancellation will be posted two hours prior to the Comments section, below, and the ride leader will not be at the start. Please check here before leaving for the ride.
