Fremont
Fremont to University District is 2.7 mi by bike and takes about 17 min, mostly flat with 190 ft of climbing. About 90% of the SuperSafe™ route is on quiet streets and bike paths, including Interurban Trail, Cheshiahud Lake Union Loop, Burke-Gilman Trail and University District Greenway. It runs along Fremont Avenue North, North 34th Street and Burke-Gilman Trail. The most direct route is 2.6 mi and takes about 17 min, but about 18% of it is on busier roads or shared paths. SuperSafe™ adds about 1 minutes and keeps you off Brooklyn Avenue Northeast and North 35th Street, staying on calmer streets instead. The ride ends in University District, and the Cyclemate app plans it live, so new bike paths, roadworks and rider reports change the route as they land.
