**CANCELLED** MUMPS: Snohomish Bakery (Brisk)

This week MUMPS rides takes us to the famous Snohomish bakery for our break. Outbound we will wind through the UW Bothell campus and various side roads, ending up with some great spinning on Lowell Larimer Road and Lowell Snohomish River Road. We will return via the standard route on Broadway through Maltby and Woodinville.

Starting time and location: Ride starts at 9:50 am at Log Boom Park in Kenmore, where there are restrooms & water.

Parking: Please do not park in the Log Boom parking lot; use the on-street parking on NE 175thSt., just east of the park.

Pace: The MUMPS series offers multiple paces.  Riders are welcome change pace groups during the ride. We will limit speed to 15mph while on multi-use paths. 

Navigation: The planned route/cue sheet is at the link below. The goal is to stay together via regrouping as necessary, but we won’t be able to wait long for anyone substantially off the pace.  Please bring navigation aids in case you need to finish on your own, as the ride becomes self-led for those ahead of or behind the group. 

Restrooms & Food:  There are planned restroom stops at mile 15.6 and 35.7 in addition to the food stop @ mile 27.9.

Cancellation: If weather conditions meet the weather cancellation criterion listed above or if there are unforeseen hazardous riding conditions or other unexpected events, the Ride Leader will post a ride-canceled note in the Comments section below at least two hours prior to the start and Ride Leader(s) will not be at the start location.

IMPORTANT: Each ride leader will make their own weather cancellation decisions independently, so one pace group may cancel while another rides, and one group may take a shortcut, while another may not. An "on the roll"  switch to the rain route is possible. This could change your options for moving between pace groups.

Fenders: Please be considerate of other riders' comfort and safety by using full fenders with long mud flaps (2"-4" from the ground) if rain is expected or the roads are wet. You may still ride with us without them, but if it's wet you will need to ride in the back of the group. 

Repairs: Be prepared with the equipment and know-how to take care of your own flats and mechanicals, and a plan for getting back to the start if your bike won't take you there (ORCA card or someone to call). If you have a problem the group will stop briefly to make sure you will be OK on your own, but we will not wait for repairs to be completed.

Safety talk and on time-departure:  Please be at the start and ready to ride at least 15 minutes prior to ride start time, to participate in the pre-ride briefing and safety talk. Current Cascade rules require all riders to participate in the pre-ride briefing. Ride rolls out at 9:50.

Hope you can join us!
