Get ready for the Chilly Hilly! Sunday, Feb. 25, 2018

With chilly February weather and 2,191 feet of climbing, the name says it all!

Burien cyclists can join others in the region in kicking off the riding season in the Northwest for the 46th Chilly Hilly. It’s is a must-do. The 33-mile route around Bainbridge Island starts with a scenic early morning ferry ride across Puget Sound from Seattle, or you can join the crowd directly on Bainbridge Island.

Join us for the ride Bicycling Magazine named “one of four classic rides” in the nation. It’s guaranteed to be hilly, probably chilly and always a heck of a lot of fun. So get the dust off your bike and get ready for cycling season early!
