Start at
Thornton A. Sullivan Park at Silver Lake (11405 W. Silver Lake Rd, Everett) at 11:30am
15 miles, terrain B, low-social on the flats, leisurely going uphill, and as fast as gravity will propel a 300 lb ride leader on 25 mm tires, with super-smooth bearings (Thank you Bill W.) downhill.

Now to the important part - this is a ride with a mission!!!! Gery's grand-daughters will be selling Girl Scouts Cookies at Mill Creek Town Center (Central Market) so this is a ride that is explicitly dedicated to buying some cookies. I have it on good authorities, that 8 out of 10 cycling champions, recommend cookies to other cyclists, who do eat cookies, The remaining two are from countries without cookies :-) Our rides will be passing through Mill Creek Town Center, and there will be a mandatory stop.
Optional coffee either in Mill Creek, or after the ride, or both, (as group decides)
Rain cancels the ride, but if you feel like stopping by Mill Creek for some coffee (and Girl Scout Cookies) lets meet at the Starbucks across the street from Central Market at 12:30...
