Last Starbucks Coffee Ride from Renton to Alki Beach (Steady)

Let's meet at the parking lot of Burnett Linear Park in Downtown, 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.  

Come join us on a relaxed 34-mile ride from Renton to Alki Beach's Starbucks for their last day of business.  This store has been a great location for coffee stops for our riders for many years.  We’ll ride along the Green River and Duwamish trails to South Park and to our mid-point coffee break at Starbucks at Alki.  We’ll return via the same route.  The ride will take about 3.5 hours including the 20-minute coffee break.  We'll also limit our speed on any multi-use paths to the legal maximum (usually 15 MPH, occasionally 10 MPH). Beginner riders are welcome on this ride. 

Restrooms are not available at the start. We'll stop at Foster Links Golf Course (mile 4) for a brief restroom stop and at our mid-point coffe break at Alki's Starbucks (mile 17).

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.
