Sunday Afternoon Cycling around Federal Way to Lake Meridian (Brisk)

Let's meet at the Lakota Park. 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 leave Federal Way and head to Lake Meridian in Kent, then through Auburn before returning to Federal Way - there's really only 2 climbs to speak of on this route!

We will climb and descend hills at our own pace, and we will regroup frequently. We'll also limit our speed on any multi-use paths to the legal maximum (usually 15 MPH, occasionally 10 MPH). We will DEFINITELY dismount our bikes and walk them across a bridge in Isaac Evans Park (If you are wondering why I can show you photographic evidence of why this is crucial).

Restrooms are available at the start. We will stop along the way for restrooms/water at mile 15. 

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!
