**CANCELLED** FRIDAY RIDERS: Eastside Ride to Medina (Leisurely)

**Note: ride starts at 9 am.** Grab your bike and join me on a leisurely paced ride (with hills) from Kirkland’s Juanita Beach Park to the Medina neighborhood in Bellevue. Free parking and restrooms available at the start.

We start out cycling on Kirkland roads following Lake Washington Blvd for 5 miles. Connect to the hilly 520 trail and follow to Evergreen Point Rd. The ride leader will wait at the top of hills for everyone to catch up. Diverge to Medina’s upscale neighborhood and enjoy cycling past beautiful homes and gardens looping around the Overlake Golf Club. Restrooms are available at Medina Beach Park. Return to Kirkland and follow Lake Washington Blvd to the Carillon Point Starbucks for a food stop, so bring money or credit card if you wish to purchase snacks. Continue to Marina Park (bathrooms available) then uphill on Market Street and back to Juanita Beach Park and the cars.
There are hills on this ride so low gears and knowledge of gear shifting is required.

Carry a full water bottle with you. Please bring spare tube, patch kit and CO2 inflation or pump to fix your own flat tire. Helmets are required!

Note: If weather conditions meet the weather cancellation criterion listed above 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. **Temps over 80° will cancel the ride.**

See you there!
