Thursday Scenic Eastside Loop (Brisk)

Let's meet at the gravel lot by the Tolt Pipeline trail on the west side of Mink Road. If the small lots on either side of Mink Road fill up, there are similar lots close by directly west on the Tolt Pipeline trail, where that trail crosses both Bear Creek Road NE and Avondale Road.

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 fun, scenic loop with some rolling hills and flatter sections around Woodinville, Duvall, and Maltby.  The route does contain a half-mile segment of packed dirt trail that is easy to navigate on a road bike.

We will climb and descend hills at our own pace, and we will regroup occasionally. 

Restrooms are NOT available at the start. We will stop along the way for restrooms/water at 19.6 miles (the Marketplace at Echo Falls).

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!
