bike routes

In the springtime, the neighborhood's bicycle habit shifts into high gear. What with Bicycle Saturdays and Sundays along Lake Washington, the service and support at Bike Works, and all the neighbors coasting by on two wheels, there's plenty to inspire an aspiring bike commuter.

Columbia Citizens working downtown and points north — did you know you have Seattle's most scenic, most fulfilling, least chaotic bike commute, bar none?

Spend your gas money on pizza and pastries!

Several Citizen cyclists have posted their routes. Take a look and see if they're going your way. It's fun and often helpful to connect with another rider the first time you try a new route.
