I am so damn nervous. This is absolute madness for me, but it is so worth it. Today is a special day, and I am at the start line of the global Womenβs 100 ride by Rapha Seattle Rapha in Seattle. No βfive more minutesβ β just a goal, a powerful charge, and an amazing female community by my side.
Todayβs game plan:
Start & Meetup: Sound Break Sound Break Bike House (Pioneer Square, 115 S Jackson St) β pre-ride coffee and treats are already waiting.
Route: Heading south through Renton and May Valley along the Cedar River Trail, a mid-ride stop near the Squak Mountain Trailhead (mile 28), and a final loop around Mercer Island (our favorite βworldβs largest outdoor velodromeβ).
Finish: Well-deserved pizza and treats back at Sound Break.
The distance is serious, the pace will vary, but the mood is set only on conquering myself.
Follow my track on Strava itβs going to be hot! π΄ββοΈβ¨
