Cycling rendezvous in Snohomish County

In the main PNW forum, there has been some interest expressed in arranging a ride for the Snohomish county/NE King County riders. I suggested an inaugural ride on the Centennial Trail.

If you are interested, please post to this thread or contact me directly at millcreek.cycling@gmail.com. Now that the weather is finally turning nice, perhaps we can log some miles!

We can always do this route, one of my favorites: https://www.toporoute.com/cgi-bin/get...BFCFFKAVNLSUTX for 31 miles.

If we link it with the centenial trail to arlington it comes to 71 miles.

Hi Millcreek, I would be up for the ride depending on my work schedule which has been extreamly busy and why I haven't posted here in about 3 months.

Woodinville Guy, I love the highbridge route and have done it many times. I think that would be an excellent choice.

Yes, that's a nice route, and I would be up for it. Although, I am in Hawaii over the long weekend, so maybe the following weekend?

I would be coming from Everett - any suggestions for the starting point?

That would be fine by me although I'll be hurting at the end of 71 miles.

There is a little dirt parking lot at woodinville-duvall road and snoqualime road. That is where most start. How about Saturday the 2nd around 7am?

Well, nothing says that the first ride has to be some sort of death march. We could do the Centennial Trail, or Snohomish-Lowell-Ebey Island, etc.

Looks reasonable. Depending on the time, I might start at the lower location and meet up at the start.

What about an 0900 start time? Too early, too late, or just right? Since I will likely have other commitments on that day, I would like to finish up no later than the early afternoon.

I can even go earlier :-) I normally start my ride at 6:30 or 7:00.

0700 would be peachy by me as well. I will cross-post the details in the PNW forum to see if others would be interested.

Spot on. I am a middle-aged white male with a goatee and glasses, and will be riding an orange Indy Fab road bike and will no doubt be wearing something fluorescent. Look for me.

I am for anything that gets people on the self powered two wheels but Millcreeks ride seems like a lot of effort to do that. Today I was on a 43 mile ride that went through Millcreek and other areas with six others (3male and 3 female) and did it by just showing up at a BIKES club of Snohomish County ride. These are listed on www.bikesclub.org.

I am a Bikes club member, and I referenced our club in the PNW 'Log in here' thread. Most of the Bikes club rides are at a social pace of about ten miles per hour which is more leisurely than I prefer. My wife and I went for a faster ride on the Sammamish River trail this morning instead.

Saturday ride

I have good intentions of joining in at 7, although I'll be riding from Mukilteo. I'll be the tall guy on a red Specialized Roubaix, white hat and sunglasses. Looking forward to the great weather.
