Lake To Lake Bike Ride Returns To Bellevue In June

BELLEVUE, WA — Bellevue's annual Lake to Lake Bike Ride is slated to return for a ninth year, welcoming riders of all abilities down to Robinswood Park on June 11. The event is family-friendly and features a free ride for younger kids, with two routes to choose from for older riders: shorter, flatter loop designed for families and less experienced cyclists, and a more challenging 24-mile loop.

• Greenbelt Loop - mostly flat 8-mile route.
• Lake Loop - more challenging 24-mile route with significant elevation gain. The course is well-marked and supported by staff and volunteers. Riders under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.

The rides for cyclists 9 and older will start at Robinswood Park between 9 and 10 a.m. before the free kids' ride gets underway at 12:15 p.m. All riders under 18 will need to be accompanied by an adult.

Officials said the event will also include raffles, refreshments, free swag, and other prizes. Pre-registration runs $15 per rider and $20 on the day of the event. Earnings from the rides will help benefit Bellevue's Youth Camp Scholarship Fund.

Overlake Medical Center, Crossroads Bellevue, and REI are among this year's sponsors.
