Seattle Waterfront via Seattle Center.

Start at Gas Works Park at 4pm and return around

6:30pm.
2101 N Northlake Way, Seattle WA 98103

Gas Works Park is the most popular park in Seattle so

finding a parking spot can be difficult on a sunny day.
Please do not leave valuables in your car.

Meet at Burke Gilman Trail on the north side of

Northlake Way, in front of NW Marine Trade
Association building.

After ride dinner at Ivars Fish Bar (401 NE Northlake

Way) which is .7 miles to the east of Gas Works Park.

What to Bring:
Unicycle [ 29er / 36er would be the best for the whole
route]
Helmet
Water
Snacks
Small Pump, patches, tire levers and basic multi-tool
Perhaps wear a bright shirt for visibility
Cell Phone

Course condition: Mostly on paved cycle tracks, trails and bike lanes but there are also brief sections on downtown
streets with no bike lane. Be prepared to ride in a bit of traffic. We will make periodic stops to let people catch up.
Route is mostly flat with some steeper sections when riding towards the waterfront and back to Seattle Center.

You ride at your own risk!

Want to ride a shorter route? Turn around at the end of the Westlake Cycle track near 9th Ave N and head back
to Gas Works for a 5 mile round trip.
