Lynnwood Extension Loop

This is a recreational ride to visit every light rail station on the future Lynnwood Extension opening in 2024-2025 from Northgate Station in Seattle to Lynnwood and back.

We will meet at the south entrance to the Northgate light rail station (10200 1st Ave NE, Seattle, WA 98125). Parking can be found in parking lots/garages nearby. Transit access uses the Line 1 light rail and multiple bus routes that service Northgate Station. Bicycle access is off the North Seattle neighborhood greenway along 100th St crossing the John Lewis Memorial Bridge from the west and Northgate neighborhood greenway on 103rd St from the east.

Please be ready to ride at 10:00 AM. We will start with a required safety briefing, and roll out when that’s done. If you miss the briefing you will not be able to ride with the group.

We will stop for breaks at the following locations along the route: Evergreen Playfield (mile 9.0), optionally at Echo Lake Park (mile 15.9).
