**Drop-off / Pick-up for class** .
We will meet in the parking lot of Duthie Hill and ride to the clearing together. See directions below.

Class will start promptly at 6pm in the clearing so we will leave the parking lot by 5:45pm. We ask that you get there by 5:45pm so we can sign-in and do a quick bike check. Please be on time.

The parking lot at Duthie Hill ( 27101 SE Duthie Hill Rd, Issaquah, WA 98029) is very small so you may need to drop off your child and then park at the overflow parking lot if you plan to stick around. Overflow parking is located at Cascade Ridge Elementary School at 2020 Trossachs Blvd SE, Sammamish, WA 98075.

PLEASE DO NOT PARK along Duthie Hill Rd, Issaquah-Fall City Rd, or in the surrounding neighborhoods.

You will be contacted a few days prior to class with more details and the youth waivers. If you have questions, comments, concerns - please don't hesitate to contact us. We look forward to seeing you out there!
