Drunken skinny riding contest?
Don't forget ST #554 will get about 3 miles away.
Or you can sign up for my ride starting in Issaquah to get more tiding in.

Could also be a fun road ride out to there, as there will be a bunch of companies (Diamondback, Felt, Kona, Knolly, Specialized, Trek) with demo bikes on hand to actually ride the trails.

Yes, a mile or so on RR grade then sweet smooth trail all the way to the park. Lots of vert for a lowland trail.

The Boot Camp trail would by fun on a cycle cross bike. Demo bikes are fun but I would get there early for best selection.

That'd be a really early morning but really goddamn fun.

Would be a huge boon since I don't have a bike that would pass for a MTB except among the original crew in the bay area. A shiny new $5k full-suspension with Nevegals would be a blasting contrast from my Allroad Porteur or my 2-speed Klunker, especially since they both have demi-balloon slicks.

I wonder if the demo reps would give us preference for having ridden there?
