Ride the Ride of Your Choice:
Century: This Scenic route travels through the upper Skagit flats, north up Chuckanut Drive then back south on the old Samish highway around Samish Lake back to Skagit county.
Metric Century: This challenging 62-mile route has some great scenery this year including the popular Chuckanut Drive area. Over 2400 feet in elevation gain.
Rolling 45 Miler: This scenic route for the social rider and those ready to move up to longer distances. About 40% flat and 60% rolling hills.
No Sweat 25 Route: Mostly flat route which travels through northern Skagit County around the Samish River with scenic views of Padilla Bay and the San Juan Islands. A great reason to get your bike out of the garage on a spring day.
