The Ride

The ride offers a choice of four fun routes; the 12-mile Little Sister, the 25-mile Girly Girl, the 42-mile Middle Sister, or our 62-mile Burly Girl.

Cyclists will start and finish at Tibbetts Valley Park (located at 965 12th Northwest Avenue in Issaquah) and throughout the day pedal through the cities of Issaquah, Bellevue, South King County, Renton and Newcastle.
