We'll ride out of Métier Brewing Co. in Woodinville down and over Hollywood Hill, to Monroe (restroom) & Snohomish, then back to Woodinville returning to the start.

At the finish, we can help celebrate Cascade Bicycle Club's Major Taylor Project -- Métier Brewing is releasing a special beer in support!

Please review the Ride With GPS elevation profile.

Pace: We'll maintain a low brisk social pace (16-18 mph) on the flats w/o the benefit or hindrance of wind, climbing/descending at rider's comfort, regrouping as necessary at the top and bottom of hills. Riders off the front or significantly off the group pace, should be prepared to finish the ride solo. For the well-being of the group, regroups will be no longer than 5 minutes.

Riders should bring tools & knowledge to repair flats/minor mechanicals (e.g., patch kit, spare tube, pump, multi-tool). Please have a backup plan should your bike become un-rideable (someone to call for rescue or an ORCA card). It happens!

Fenders: If it's wet or there's any chance of rain, for the comfort & safety of your fellow riders, full fenders with long buddy flaps are greatly appreciated. No fenders means you are happy to ride in the back. Weather can change quickly this time of year, please be prepared for all conditions by having proper gear and equipment.

With food and libations at the finish, there will not be a stop for food, it is recommended that riders carry ample hydration & snacks in case of delays.

Start: Plan to arrive at least 20 minutes early in order to prepare yourself and your bike prior to the safety briefing. Ride starts promptly at 10:00. 

There will be a stop at Wilmot Park near the start for restrooms as necessary.

Parking: Métier Brewery
