WRUMPS: Kenmore to Edmonds

Let's do lunch! We'll ride out of Bothell Ski & Bike traveling from Kenmore through Lynnwood to Edmonds where we'll have lunch at the Red Twig Cafe (about the 16 mile mark). Our stop will be about 20 - 30 minutes depending on the size of our group and food ordered.

If you like climbing or want to improve your climbing this ride is for you. The ride to Edmonds has so a good share of hills sprinkled along the route, but they are pretty moderate with breaks here and there and then a fun downhill into Edmonds. Our return from Edmonds includes the climb out via Woodway as well as Innis Arden. Woodway is about one mile and fairly moderate, while Innis Arden has some significant grades at times, also about a mile in length. We'll have a reprieve on the Interurban Trail and a nice downhill back into Kenmore.

We'll maintain a moderate pace (14-16 mph) on the flats w/o the benefit or hinderance of wind, slower on the uphills, faster on the downhills. This is a stay together ride, regrouping as necessary at the top of hills so please climb at your own pace.

Riders should bring tools and knowledge to repair flats and please have a backup plan for any mechanical that may occur. It happens!

Fenders are a must this time of year unless it is bone dry on the roads. This is for the comfort of your fellow riders as well as yourself. No fenders means you are happy to ride in the back.

Plan to arrive at least 15 minutes early in order to prepare yourself and your bike prior to the safety briefing. Ride starts promptly at 10:00. 

Restrooms available at the start.

Parking: Please park in the spaces on the west side of the lot so that we do not impede Bothell Bike's customers.
