Annual Ride to start the New Year off right! We currently don't have an official MBBC ride leader for the 2020 ride, but anyone who would like to just "ride on your own" meet at the regular starting place/time (see details below). Pedal in the new year, every January 1st. Meet before 10:30 am, depart between 10:30-11:00am from Fairhaven Park for the Old Edison Inn where we are expected. We can park our bicycles in the beer garden and enjoy the warmth inside. Friends and family are also invited to join us at the Old Edison Inn for lunch after 11:30am, even if they don’t ride. The Old Edison doesn't open until 11:30 so we won't leave Bellingham until after 10:30am. http://theoldedison.com
Everyone rides their own pace; check the route ahead of time so if you're separated from the group you'll know where to turn off toward Edison. (Go down Chuckanut, turn right on W Bow Hill Road and head into Edison. Ride down main street, the Old Edison Inn is the last building before leaving town.) We pedal 13.8 miles along Chuckanut Drive. Return the same way or via Colony Road and Lake Samish, or even Bow Hill Road to start your year off steep!
Each year this ride attracts a large group of participants, regardless of the weather. Start your year off with the MBBC.
