EAstside Ride The Hill DREAM rides are focused on developing stronger riders by training on hills or using intervals (or both :)

This week, we have 2 paces (Brisk and Vigorous) ride set up as a training ride to get back in shape or get stronger. Starting at the East Lake Samm Trail behind Whole Foods in Redmond, we ride through Bellevue, Issaquah out to the Falls and back through Sammamish.

The Vigorous route will be a bit longer and have a bit more elevation.

If the roads are wet, please be courteous to other riders and bring fenders with buddy flaps.

What to Know Before You Go

  • Advance registration required. Cancel if unable to attend, to open space for others.
  • Must be present at safety briefing to participate.
  • Helmets required.
Distance
51 mi.
Elevation Gain
2,900 ft.
Pace
Brisk: [16-18mph]

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
Some Hills

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
