Although all cyclist should be fully prepared when they take to the roads you can enjoy the added security of knowing that there is ride support if needed and food stops with typical ride food and drinks along all of the routes.

As you ride the south loop you will be treated to views of the San Juan Islands while overlooking Bellingham, Samish, and Padilla Bays along with stunning views of Chuckanut and Blanchard mountains, also known as "where the Cascades mountains meet the sea". The north loop offers stunning views of Mt Baker as it stretches to meet the sky at 10,800 feet, as well as incredible views of the Canadian Cascades, Mt Shuksan, the Twin Sisters, and Vancouver Island.
The 25 mile loop is perfect for the family, parent and child, or the first timer to an organized event.
