This is a S.L.O.W. Ride for Senior Ladies* On Wheels (*all riders of all ages welcome, as long as you ride S.L.O.W.!). Starting at the Northwest African American Museum on the I-90 lid, we will sample the variety of the Sweet Treats available in Central Seattle, following low-traffic neighborhood streets, trails and Greenways.  We'll pick up a bag of special fortune cookies at the Tsue Chong Fortune Cookie Factory in the International District, then ride the Beacon Hill Greenway to choose a lunch spot from many diverse options on Beacon Hill. Then we'll roll through Jefferson Park, cruise down Cheasty Boulevard and follow the sidewalk on Rainier Avenue to Borracchini's Bakery for a final whiff of sugar.  Don't worry, we won't hurry!

What Pace Means

Pace classification indicates the intended range of speeds on level ground without breaks. This means downhill sections of the ride may be faster, and uphill sections slower.

Note: For rides with a “hilly” terrain classification, consider choosing a pace one step down from your usual comfort level.
Terrain
Rolling

What Terrain Means

Terrain indicates the most common or average terrain type of the ride and should be considered relative to the length and overall difficulty of the ride. For example, a long-distance ride with a lot of elevation gain will be overall less challenging than a short ride with equal elevation gain. Consider the pace and frequency of regroup as well to understand how advanced a ride may be.

  • Mostly flat: Trails and/or mostly flat roads with a possible gentle uphill
  • Rolling: Climbs are short and easy, not too numerous
  • Some hills: A few short, steep hills, some moderate upgrades and/or longer gentle climbs
  • Hilly: Consistent or continuous climbing
  • Off-road: Significant unpaved sections
