4th Annual T-Day 4 Hill Ride (Steady)

Join us for the 4th annual early morning Thanksgiving Day ride up the inclines of Sahalee, Ames Lk, Union and Education Hills - a great way to start the morning! Throw the turkey in the oven, set the timer, and come out for a series of hill adventures starting at Marymoor Park - we'll be meeting on the Sammamish River Trail adjacent to Whole Foods (which is still part of Marymoor Park - see map for details) - and we'll try to complete our ride in time for the afternoon kickoffs, tipoffs, family & friend get-togethers, etc. After completing this ride, be warned that you may feel a certain heightened sense of self-righteous smugness as you choose a second helping of yams with brown sugar & marshmallows or an extra drum stick.

Riders should be able to sustain an overall Steady pace, read a cue sheet, and change a flat. Riders can ride on their own, in small groups, or with the ride leader. Riders can access the route information at http://ridewithgps.com/routes/11042430. Faster riders and better hill climbers are welcome but for them the ride can be self-paced and self-guided. The ride leader is slow up hills but will always get there.

The cue sheet for this ride is attached below:

In case of steady rain or other hazardous weather conditions, the ride leader will post a cancellation note in the comments section of this posting.
