Mid Week R and R Ride

Did you ride really hard this weekend?  Perhaps did a century like the Flying Wheels or a hard training ride and you are in need of a nice mid-week recovery/relaxing ride to help get the lactic acid out of your legs.  

Well come and join me for  the perfect mid-week recovery ride on the Foothills Trail.  We will start from the East Puyallup Trailhead and bike through Orting to South Prairie before turning around for the ride back to the start.  It's a very gradual climb (perhaps 1-3 percent) ride out and a nice flat gradual descent back.  We will ride at a moderate pace except throught the town of Orting where the posted speed limit is 10 mph.  Once we pass through Orting we will continue at our moderate pace.

Directions to the East Puyallup Trailhead:  From State Highway 167 and/or 512 take the state highway 410 exit.  Then take the Orting/Sumner exit which is Route 162 and turn south towards Orting.  Cross the bridge and take an immediate right onto 80th Street East then drive about one mile to the trailhead which will be on your left.

Steady rain cancels.  If weather is questionable please check the ride information site for updates.  I will announce cancellation in the comments section below at least 2 hours prior to the ride start.  You may also email or text me.

Please arrive early enough so you have ample time to get your bike ready, hear the SMART briefing, and sign the ride waiver.  Remember, we roll at 6 PM.
