In the winter we train weekly around Seattle. As the snow clears
and we move toward summer, our weekend rides will get longer. We
frequently do some of Washington's most spectacular mountain rides
including Mt Baker, Sunrise, Old Blewett, Chinook and beautiful
Washington Pass, the highlight of our
Native Planet Classic
on June 26, 2010. Many of these rides are offered at various paces;
although Super-Strenuous riders may fly through the route, most of the
other members focus on enjoying the scenery and camaraderie. We focus
on helping cyclists prepare for the big summer mountain rides such as
the Native Planet Classic, RAMROD, and the Native Planet Super
Torture, and our unique and exclusive French tours in the Pyrenees,
Alps and Corsica. We hope you'll join us and share with us the joy of
riding 4 a reason.
Rides are free and open to the public. Links to cue sheets for the
next upcoming weekend ride can be found under the Featured Events
section below. Also check the Featured Events section for last minute
updates or cancellations. Non-members can RSVP to
