Gravel: Short Out and Back Tolt Pipeline and Redmond Watershed (Moderate)

Join us for a short out and back challenging ride on gravel and dirt trails.  This is a Moderate pace of 14 to 16 MPH. Bikes should have tires that can ride safely on gravel and dirt trails. This a very hilly route through the scenic trails of Tolt Pipeline and Redmond Watershed.  This ride offers a variety of trails ranging from wide gravel trails along farmlands and forested double wide dirt single track. 

Let's meet at the top of the Tolt Pipeline Trail at the smaller dirt lot at the junction of the Tolt Pipeline Trail and 168th Avenue NE in Woodinville. 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.

We will stay together and regroup often at the top of hills.  We'll also limit our speed on any multi-use paths to the legal maximum (usually 15 MPH, occasionally 10 MPH).

Restrooms and/or water: The start will not have restrooms. There are restrooms and water at the Redmond Watershed at the halfway turn around point.

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. Bring a white headlight and red taillight for evening rides.

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!
