Ride a car-free Lake Washington Boulevard in Seattle

Facebook Twitter More...

Tomorrow marks the beginning of 2008 Bicycle Saturdays and Sundays on Lake Washington Boulevard in Seattle.

From about 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on 10 weekend days this spring and summer, city crews will close off a four-mile section of Lake Washington Boulevard between Mount Baker Beach and Seward Park to vehicular traffic.

This makes for a flat, winding ride along a two-lane, lakeside road that is ideal for families. It's also a portion of road to throw in for a longer weekend ride. There's also a two-mile loop around Seward Park, which juts into Lake Washington.


The dates for 2008 are:

Saturday, May10
Sunday, May 18
Saturday, June 14
Sunday, June 29
Saturday, July 12
Sunday, July 20
Saturday, Aug. 9
Sunday, Aug. 17
Saturday, Sept. 13
Sunday, Sept. 21

Check out the Bicycle Saturdays and Sundays webpage for a map. 

Like so many recreational cycling events around here, this one is sponsored by Group Health.
