Anyone in Puget sound area???

Greg

I'm in the Lakewood/Tacoma area, until early August anyway. Then I'm moving elsewhere. Let me know if you plan a ride before then:)

I used to live in Seattle, but not anymore. I wish I had a bike when I was out there, beautiful riding country. Iowa is pretty dull for riding...

So I'm planning on going on a ride with riders from PNWriders.com on July 5th. This is my first time meeting up with any of the riders from that forum so I'm honestly not sure what their riding style is, but if they don't seem to be safe and courteous I definately won't be sticking around.

But it seems like a good chance to meet some other riders around and check out the area.

Here's the link if anyone's interested.

Here's the route.... http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&hl=e...,0.920105&z=11


Start time- 10am

Start Point- Rainier Deli & Gas‎Address:
101 Binghampton St E
Rainier, WA 98576
(360) 446-3770

End point- Mt Rainier...as high up as we can go.

The route will be as follows....

From Rainier Deli and Gas in Rainier to....
507 to Vail Cutoff rd.
Vail Cutoff to Vail rd.
Vail rd to 507 South.
507 South to 702 East.
702 East to Hwy 7 South.
Hwy 7 South to 706 East and then up Mt Rainier.

I'm totally interested, but it would mean I would have to make it to Olympia before 10am on my day off :) but a 350 mile ride sounds like fun... hmmm...

Do you have to sign up for it? or are they just going to leave at 10 and whoever is there can go?

As far as I know you don't have to sign up for it, but I'm sure it's preffered just so they have some idea of numbers.
