A section of the East Lake Sammamish Trail (ELST) will be closed starting May 26, 2026 through the rest of the year so crews can replace aging culverts and expand salmon habitat.

Although the construction area is short, its location will temporarily split the trail into two separate sections. There will be no detour around the construction closure. The 600 ft trail closure area is located between Louis Thompson Rd NE and NE Inglewood Hill Rd.

Once the culverts under the trail have been completed, a new wide paved trail section will be built and high-quality salmon habitat on George Davis Creek will be accessible.

Thank you for your patience as we work to help recover local Kokanee salmon populations. Learn more about our Fish Passage Restoration Program at https://kingcounty.gov/en/dept/dnrp/nature-recreation/environment-ecology-conservation/wildlife/fish-and-shellfish/fish-passage-program

On Memorial Day we pause with gratitude and honor those who sacrificed their lives to serve our country. We hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday, on and off your bikes.

For a few hours, once a day, one day a year, we gather for the fever dream that is Bike Everywhere Day in Seattle, WA. Your morning bicycle commute is slathered with little tent pop ups of small and big businesses and organizations that came out to celebrate with you.
A school hosted a bicycle cleaning station and had homemade bicycle decorations. One station had coffee and streamed bicycle races, another had scones, many had stickers, and few had maps, and ALL HAD THE GOOD VIBES.
Cheers to Bike Everywhere Day! And happy Bike Everywhere Month!

Ready, set, go!
Bicycling around Walla Walla in spring with a group of fellow bike nerds, with a ton of rest stops and locally catered lunches, and social hours after riding on Day 1 and 2, seem fun, right? WELL IT IS.
These tours are made possible by the relationships we build with our state-wide bicycle community. Local food and drink vendors, volunteers, staff, and riders all come together to make these events so enjoyable!
Doing a Tour can open your eyes to new experiences and people and cultures across the state of Washington.
And a special shout out to our sponsors for the Tours, we also couldn’t have pulled this event off without you 🫶
