The Skagit Bike Club hosts the third Hidden Gem ride of 2018 on August 4th. A "Hidden Gem" is a ride for members of the North Puget Sound Bike Alliance (includes MBBC and 3 other north-side bike clubs) to explore a route that others may not know about.

From Phil Mcloud:

The Skagit Bicycle Club’s Hidden Gems Ride is scheduled for August 4. We will use the same start location as last year, the Home Depot parking lot (2001 Marketplace Dr, Burlington, WA) and the same routes. We will start at 10:00 am. Here are the routes in Ride with GPS:

 

Long -https://ridewithgps.com/routes/22168395

Med -https://ridewithgps.com/routes/22974164

Short -https://ridewithgps.com/routes/23207801

 

The Mount Vernon/Burlington area has a number of fine establishments for after ride food and drink. If a cold, freshly brewed adult beverage is desired,  Farmstrong Brewing is just across the river at 110 Stewart Rd, Mount Vernon. If food and drink is the order of the day the Skagit River Brewery at 404 S 3rd St, Mount Vernon is a good choice. The Train Wreck Bar and Grill at 427 E Fairhaven Avenue, Burlington is another excellent choice for food and drink.

 

I will provide a reminder and more details during the week before the ride. Hope you can make it.
