We begin with a warm-up southbound on the Sammamish River Trail, then ride up and over Hollywood Hill, to Redmond Ridge, and on to Carnation.  Return via Duthie Hill, Beaver Lake, Marymoor, Willows Road, and the Sammamish River Trail. Some hills and assorted rollers.  NOTE:  We'll have a detour at Mile 47.5 to avoid slide and culvert work on the Louis Thompson Road descent.  Riders climb and descend at their own pace.  Please plan your travel to be ready to ride 15 minutes before start time so we can have the safety talk and get on the road.  

There'll be a quick "eat it and beat it" food stop at Starbucks in Carnation.  Bathrooms and water will be available at the start/Mile Zero; Redmond Ridge/Mile 15; Carnation/Mile 30; and Beaver Lake/Mile 43.  Porta-pot stop at Marymoor/Mile 53.5.   

A detour-modified RideWithGPS route map with cue sheet is at the link.  If you want a cue sheet, please print it.  Bring ID; spare tube, tools, patch kit, pump, 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. 

Please RSVP by clicking on the red Register Now button at the top of this page.  This will save time at the ride start.  NOTE:  I will close registrations at 7 AM on ride day so I can print the waiver.  If you find registrations closed, come to the start and sign in there.  

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.  Please check here before going to the start.

Comments

There'll be a sucker hole over the ride start this morning, but we'll be soaked before we get to Carnation and Marymoor.  Not riding this route today.  Regrets.
