Auburn Supermall to Gene Coulon: A Spectacular View of Fall Colors (Steady)

Let's meet in the South-West Parking Lot in front of Walmart at Auburn Supermall, 762 Outlet Collection Way, Auburn WA 98001. 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.

Our ride will take us from beautiful Auburn into Kent and Tukwila, eventually reaching Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park in Renton. There we will enjoy the beautiful Fall colors and scenery of Lake Washington. Our return trip will have us navigating along surface streets in Renton and Tukwila, eventually hooking up with the Interurban Trail Southward back to Auburn. 

The route is mostly flat and we will climb and descend any hills at our own pace, and we will stay together.  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 will stop along the way if necessary for restrooms/water at miles 11, 23, and 30.

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.

This is a mentored ride for Michael Botcher.

We hope you can join!
