DETAILS

Some of your VBC ride leaders are used to having their "biggest" ride of the week on Saturdays. We're getting together to start a series of longer, weekend rides. Look for longer rides every Saturday during the riding season!

Head north toward La Center on 10th Ave which can be a bit busy, but has wide shoulders. From there, we pass Daybreak Park and La Center on the way to a nice flat ride along the Woodland dike.  We return south passing through La Center on the way to Salmon Creek.  Note that many of the sections will have fast traffic with no shoulders - but are normally lightly traveled.  Optional restroom stops as follows:
