Columbia City Night Market Ride (Steady)

Let's meet at the giant shovel sculpture on the west side of the Columbia City Light Rail Station. Be there, ready to go at the time listed above. We will start with a required safety briefing, and roll out when that's done.  All riders must attend the safety briefing to participate.

This social 15-mile ride ends at Peace Peloton's monthly Night Market in Columbia City. Our route takes us around Mount Baker, along Lake Washington, and up to Beacon Hill using the Chief Sealth Trail before returning to Columbia City.

We will climb and descend hills at our own pace, and we will regroup at the top of signifigant climbs. We'll also limit our speed on any multi-use paths to the legal maximum (usually 15 MPH, occasionally 10 MPH).

Restrooms are not available at the start. We will stop for restrooms and water at Seward Park (mile 7). We will end at the Columbia City Night Market (6-10 pm) where we'll find food trucks, beverages, and shopping from local vendors.

Bring a bike lock, lights, and your ID if you plan to join us in the beer garden. Also bring a spare tube and tools to fix a flat; cash and/or credit card; ORCA card; water and a small snack. Please have full fenders if the roads are wet, or you may be asked to ride at the rear of the group.

Note: 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 cancel the ride and all registered riders will be sent a notification email. If the ride is cancelled at least two hours before the start, Ride Leader(s) will not be at the start location. Please check before leaving for the ride.

All bodies and all bikes are welcome on this ride. We hope you can join us!
