Start Line
Riders should arrive with water bottles full and bikes in good working order. Just in case, we’ve got you covered with onsite mechanical services by Woodinville and Westside Bicycles and Trek Bicycle at the Start Line.
Ham Radio Operators
SAG cars support all bike routes and are volunteer coordinated and staffed by our "Command Central" located at the Start/Finish line. They are available to help with minor mechanical issues or transport you to an official mechanic for more serious problems. They are also available to get you to the finish line if you are unable to continue due to a non-serious injury or mechanical issue.
Guys on Bikes
The Guys on Bikes are a highly skilled and experienced volunteer group providing ride support for the event. The group provides course support for logistical and mechanical issues, and moral support to riders.
WAVE Ambassadors and Ride Hostesses
The WAVE Ambassadors are not an official event-day support team, but they are an amazing group of ladies who volunteer and promote the event year-round. Ride Hostesses are members of various local cycling clubs - including Lakemont Ladies & Cascade Bicycle Club - who volunteer to support and help Cycle the WAVE riders.
