Anyone know what the deal is with the Summits of Bothell ride for this year? I was on their website and it still refers only to 2008. Is this ride dead for 2009?

I was wondering the same thing. Last year was great! (Although I think it coincides with part of the SiR fall brevet series and I'd miss it this year.) :(

August 30, 2009 according to The Bicycle Paper.

Maybe I'll try it this year since it isn't the day after Rapsody (one day version.)

7 days to recover from the fall 400k. Maybe I'll be there for it.

Previous years were announced late.

Because it's part of the Bothell festival, they don't really publicize or announce it the same way other rides do.

Well, I emailed over to the Bothell city government who organizes the ride and they advised that the 2009 edition is cancelled. There was a lack of sponsorship and too many things going on. They did say they planned to bring back the ride in 2010.

Do it anyway! Here in Austin we have a ride that is rider sponsored, no glory other than if you finish it, you can buy a t-shirt.

Good point.

Does anyone have last year's cue sheet?
