Lake Sammamish Loop (Steady)

Let's meet at the East Lake Sammamish Trailhead parking lot adjacent to Whole Foods. 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 will be a fun and relaxed ride around Lake Sammamish using the somewhat less hilly lower route. This is a mentoring ride for Jim Olsen!

We will climb and descend hills at our own pace, and we will regroup occasionally as needed. 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 but not water. We will stop along the way for restrooms/water/coffee/snacks at the Issaquah PCC Market at mile 12.6.

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 in the Weather Status 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!
