Going to the Black Diamond Bakery for Treats (Steady)

Let's meet at the Auburn Walmart SE corner of the parking lot. 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 begin our ride at the Walmart in Auburn and work our way through Auburn heading east. We will continue on the SE Auburn Black Diamond Road; we then will connect with the Kent Black Diamond Road and then to the bakery. On our return back to Auburn, we will descend down to the green valley road and make our way back to the Auburn Walmart. 

We will climb and descend hills at our own pace, and we will STAY TOGETHER/REGROUP OCCASIONALLY. 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’ll also stop for coffee/snacks at Black Diamond Bakery at mile 14.5.

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!
