Ron Regis to Ristrettos with Jake and Alan (Moderate)

Let's meet at the Ron Regis Park in Renton. 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 is a really nice ride through some wooded back roads.  There is some climbing but nothing too drastic.   Ristrettos has a really nice patio where we'll have refreshments and a great view of Mt. Rainier before heading back via Jones Road, a beautiful, rolling 2-mile stretch.  The way back is mostly downhill with a couple of easy climbs at the end.

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

Restrooms are available at the start. We’ll stop for coffee/snacks at Ristrettos at mile 15.6.

Bring a spare tube and tools to fix a flat, just in case. Other things to bring: phone; ID; 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.

We hope you can join us!
