I'm inclined to do an in-town hills ride. It's not like there aren't enough of 'em.

Lake Washington Blvd is closed to cars now. It might be fun to hit that.

I can't make it out when ya'll go, but here's my in-city hills route. It's just a combination of a bunch of different classic rides in Seattle.

that's a nice little route. only suggestion i'd make would be to climb up dravus out of interbay, ride by the cemetery, then take smith to mcgraw and bomb down either fourth or fifth. top of queen anne is a pretty pleasant place to pedal around that doesn't get pedaled much for obvious reasons.

The coolest little park no one ever goes to. Massively awesome views of the city.

Also named: Bhy Kracke Park.

So, I used to live a block from this park. I walked out of work in belltown (3rd and bell) one day, and watched two crack whores and a dealer get into a car and drive off. This wasn't remarkable. What was remarkable was that when I got home walking up 5th ave, there was these same two crack whores and the same fucking dealer smoking crack in the sole picnic shelter at bhy kracke park.

That's my story. Also, it's up a really big fucking hill. You should all go to this park.

That route is about what I had in mind, more or less.

Voula's at 11, in case anyone forgot. Noon is also acceptable.
