A quick morning 40 mile loop at strenuous pace (21mph) up to Mill Creek and return. We'll meet at 0815 in the lower Woodland Park parking lot, near the restrooms, for a pre-ride brief, then roll at 0930. Our goal will be to stay together, regrouping as needed at the top of bigger climbs. Coffee at the end of the ride near Green Lake at Fix Coffee. (Speed limit of 15mph on short sections of multi-use paths.)

What Pace Means

Pace classification indicates the intended range of speeds on level ground without breaks. This means downhill sections of the ride may be faster, and uphill sections slower.

Note: For rides with a “hilly” terrain classification, consider choosing a pace one step down from your usual comfort level.
Terrain
Hilly

What Terrain Means

Terrain indicates the most common or average terrain type of the ride and should be considered relative to the length and overall difficulty of the ride. For example, a long-distance ride with a lot of elevation gain will be overall less challenging than a short ride with equal elevation gain. Consider the pace and frequency of regroup as well to understand how advanced a ride may be.

  • Mostly flat: Trails and/or mostly flat roads with a possible gentle uphill
  • Rolling: Climbs are short and easy, not too numerous
  • Some hills: A few short, steep hills, some moderate upgrades and/or longer gentle climbs
  • Hilly: Consistent or continuous climbing
  • Off-road: Significant unpaved sections
