Monday, June 23 to Friday, June 27, 2025 Below is a tentative list of rides, with approximate distances which are subject to change. The order in which we do these rides and the daily start times will depend on the weather and the ferry schedules. Also, two of the rides are quite hilly, Southworth, with almost 1,200m of elevation gain and Vashon Island with well over 1,300m. Group interest will dictate which, if either, of those two we do.
- Bainbridge Island: We’ll ride to the Colman Dock in downtown Seattle and catch the ferry over to Bainbridge Island and go through Manito Beach, Manzanita, Fletcher Bay then climb Toe Jam Hill and back to the ferry and our hotel. Multiple options, 47 km/675 m to 78 km/1,100 m elevation
- Bainbridge Island/Edmonds/Chittenden Locks: We’ll ride to the Colman Dock in downtown Seattle and catch the ferry over to Bainbridge Island, this time going to the north end of the island, crossing the Agate Pass Bridge and into Suquamish. We’ll catch the ferry from Kingston to Edmonds then ride south through Seattle along the Interurban, Burke-Gilman, and Elliott Bay trails and back to our hotel. 90 km/915 m elevation
- Bremerton/Bainbridge: We’ll ride to the Colman dock in downtown Seattle and catch the hour-long ferry to Bremerton. We’ll ride north through Enetai, Brownsville, and Keyport then head further north and have lunch in Poulsbo. From there, we’ll ride along the east side of the island and catch the ferry from Bainbridge back to Seattle. 90 km/924 m elevation
- Lake Washington Loop: A Seattle classic, we’ll drive to our starting point and ride around Lake Washington. We’ll go through Seward Park, the Seattle Japanese Garden, the University of Washington campus, then to Kenmore where we’ll go south through Kirkland and Bellevue. We’ll go past the Boeing assembly plant in Renton and back to the start. Multiple options, 57 km/458 m elevation to 82 km/709 m elevation
- Mercer Island/I-90/SR-520: This loop takes us from our hotel through downtown and over Lake Washington on the I-90 bike path. We’ll go around Mercer Island looping around the south side then cross into Bellevue and go north, passing near Bill Gates’ 66,000 sq. ft. mansion. The route takes us back to Seattle on the SR-520 bike path then back to our hotel. 63 km/677 m elevation
- Southworth: For those of you yearning for hills, this ride will give your legs a workout. We’ll ride to the Fauntleroy ferry terminal then catch the ferry to Southworth. We’ll ride through the Manchester State Forest, Annapolis and then head northeast just before we get to Gig Harbor. From there, it’s Sunrise Beach and Olalla then the ferry back to our hotel. 76 km/1,180 m elevation or 88 km/1,180 m elevation
- Vashon Island: If the hills of the Southworth ride weren’t enough for you, Vashon Island will take care of that itch.

We’ll head northwest through Jensen Point Park, onto Maury Island, the Maury Island Marine Park, Point Robinson Lighthouse then north to the ferry and back to our hotel. 53 km/840 m elevation or 80 km/1,345 m elevation
