Renton Marymoor Issaquah Version 3 (Moderate)

Join us on a 65.1mi-mile ride from Renton Old City Hall out to Marymoor and onto Issaquah, at a Moderate pace 14-16 MPH! The pace of this ride is based on having no wind and being on a flat road. If there is a headwind or a hill, the pace will be lower, if we have a tailwind or downhill, the pace may be higher. Keep this in mind when deciding to join this ride. Note this is Version three with slightly higher mileage and elevation.
This is a challenging but rewarding ride along Lake Washington BLVD, Lake Hills Connector, and eventually A gradual climb up Newport before A run along Jones Road on our way to the final climb up 196th.
Let's meet at Old Renton City Hall 200 Mill Renton, be ready to ride at 9:00 We will start with a required safety briefing and roll out when that's done.  If you miss the briefing, you will not be able to ride with the group.
We will climb and descend hills at our own pace, and our goal will be to stay together.  We will also limit our speed on any multi-use paths to the legal maximum (usually 15 MPH and occasionally 10 MPH).
Restrooms are not available at the start, please see the stop list below.

Bring a spare tube and tools to fix a flat, just in case. 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 post a ride-canceled note in the Comments section below at least two hours prior to the start and Ride Leader(s) will not be at the start location. Mentoring is available for prospective Ride Leaders with advance notice. We hope you can join us!
