The trail out of Issaquah starts by the caboose on Gilman Blvd. Follow that north up alongside Lake Sammamish to the Marymoor connector. Through Marymoor Park to the Sammamish River Trail. North on the River Trail until it joins/becomes the Burke Gilman Trail. Follow the Burke all the way to the U-District. At the U cross the Montlake Bridge, then the signed bike route for the Lake Washington Loop to Lake Washington Blvd. South to Seward Park, loop around the Park and then south to Renton where you connect with the Cedar River Trail. Cedar River to Cedar Grove Road then Cedar Grove Road to Issaquah-Hobart Road and home.<br /><br />A King County Bike Map will show you everything you need.Kent Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01607372827627527450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18676999.post-53530367262681606412011-04-05T16:11:44.835-07:002011-04-05T16:11:44.835-07:00You should post the google map trail or post the t...You should post the google map trail or post the trail somehow, would love to know which way you went from Issaquah.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00599061199049380174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18676999.post-91778957964504297102011-02-06T06:43:39.748-08:002011-02-06T06:43:39.748-08:00Himalayan Basketball is great but you can only get...Himalayan Basketball is great but you can only get it on cable.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09963284276467415798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18676999.post-91262146707294867512011-02-05T10:59:26.302-08:002011-02-05T10:59:26.302-08:00Hey, I took that day(2/2/11) off work too.

Including the bits of wandering in Marymoor & Seward Park, it looks like it was just over 72 miles. Or, as the salmon would say, about 116 kilometers.Kent Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01607372827627527450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18676999.post-50916308728534419382011-02-03T06:04:11.513-08:002011-02-03T06:04:11.513-08:00What a fun ride!
