Renton Issaquah Version 4A (Moderate)

Join us on a 41.5-mile route from Renton to Issaquah at Moderate (14-16 MPH)!

Let's meet at 200 Mill Ave. (Renton Old City Hall) for our pre-ride safety briefing, we will depart afterwards. All riders must attend the safety briefing to participate.   The pace of this ride is based on having no wind and being on a flat road. If there is a headwind or a hill, the pace will be lower, if we have a tailwind or downhill, the pace may be higher. Due to the number of similar routes, I ride, version numbers are used, and differing versions of the same ride may have very different elevation profiles. Keep this in mind when deciding to do this ride. This ride features some early climbs, a stop at the Issaquah Coffee Company and a nice trail return into Renton.

We will climb and descend hills at our own pace, and our goal will be to stay together. We'll also limit our speed on any multi-use paths to the legal maximum (usually 15 MPH).

Restrooms are not available at the start. We will stop along the way for restrooms/water, please see the stop list below. 

Bring a spare tube and tools to fix a flat, just in case. 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 such as a Zombie Apocalypse, 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.  Mentoring for prospective Ride Leaders available with advance notice.

We hope you can join us!
