Turkey Chase (Moderate)

The Thanksgiving turkey is on the loose and will be running with bated breath as he hears the clicking of changing gears behind him from Redmond to the hills above Lake Sammamish and into Carnation. But alas, he turns to see the group is at it again after their break and the mass of spandex is closing in until they are strained and slowed by the likes of Ames Lake and Union Hill gradients. So, he casually trots back to Redmond ignorant to the swarm that is on his tail who are eager to start the holiday oven. Will the velo hunters even catch a glimpse of his quivering plume hiding in the brush or will his plight end before he trots back to his hiding place near our Redmond start? 

Come join us in a fun, social event!  The ride will end with coffee and a treat hosted by the friendly team at Trek Bicycle Redmond.
