Crank Sisters Intermediate Ride at Tiger Mountain

Evergreen Crank Sisters Women's Group Intermediate Ride at Tiger Mountain

This is a ladies-only ride.  

Meet at the upper lot at Tiger Mountain Summit (enter the DOT lot off Highway 18, go through the lot and turn left, drive up the gravel road to the upper lot.)  Meet at 9:30 AM.

Starting time is 9:45.   Please be on time--we cannot wait more than 10 minutes for late arrivers.

Ride leader contact info: Rachel Robinson.  425-736-2382.

Suggested Equipment: Knee and elbow armor are recommended.  You can ride these trails on a 4inch travel bike, but if you have 5-6", bring it.  Bring plenty of water and some food, as we will be on the mountain for several hours.  You'll need a Discover Pass to park in the upper lot; if you don't have one, park in the DOT lot off highway 18 and ride up to the upper lot--make sure you leave extra time to get up there.

Trails: We will climb Master Link, then the road to the summit.  Summit Trail, Preston Railroad Trail, then the road to Northwest Timber. This is subject to change based on weather, trail conditions, etc.

Conditions for cancellation:  Heavy wind, lightning.  If a ride must be canceled, the ride leader will try to contact anyone signed up by 3pm the day before the ride.

Grunt rating:  Expect a 1.5-2 hour climb up the mountain (we'll go slow and rest when we feel like it).   It's a grunt, but the ride down will make it all worthwhile.  And you'll be excused from going to the gym for the rest of the day.  

Crank Sisters have a no-drop policy--we will regroup often and adjust the pace based on riders' preference.

Other information:  Ride Leader is regaining fitness after an injury, so if you're a slow climber, this is the ride for you!
