Hey Everybody,
For our second ride we will be starting in Snohomish and will bike along the Centennial Trail.. The trail can take you to all the way up to Skagit County. For this ride we will probably clock in around 30+ miles. From what I understand the trail is all flat. There are a few restrooms as well as drinking fountains along the way, but I highly recommend bringing a water bottle. The trail offers views of the Cascade Mountain Range.
I would like to have the pace be at least 12mph, which I think that most of you were able to keep easily.
