New Club Meeting Schedule

BIKES Club has five all-member meetings per year in February, April, May, September, and November.

Where: Snohomish County PUD Building, 2320 California St, Everett WA 98201

Day: The second Thursday of the meeting months.

Time: 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. 

There are sometimes specific-purpose meetings (e.g. McClinchy planning) called throughout the year, usually in alternate months. Those meetings are announced well in advance and scheduled on the Ride + Events Calendar. 

The usual caveat: meeting details are subject to change at any time, so keep your eye on your email inbox and the Rides + Events Calendar page.

Bike Laws in Washington State

Do you know what the Safety Stop law is? How about which e-bikes can legally ride on sidewalks and trails? 

If you don't know these, then you ought to get a copy of the Pocket Reference Guide. Find it and more bike law information on our Bike Laws page in the Resources drop down menu.

BIKES Club e-bike policy

More and more of us are riding e-bikes. It behooves us to know what the club policy is regarding e-bikes. Here it is, adopted by the club in September, 2023.

The e-bike policy (in summary form) is thus:

• Class 1 (pedal-assist up to 20 mph) can go on all club group rides.
• Class 2 (pedal-assist and throttle-assist up to 20 mph) can go on social-pace and steady-pace rides. 
  
• Class 3 (pedal-assist up to 28 mph) can go on all club group rides.

(Note that class 2 e-bikes are not allowed on moderate, brisk, and strenuous rides.) The full policy can be found on our E-bikes Policy page.
