Our bike club is riding the Centennial trail this Saturday and I was given a map. However I don’t even know how to get to the section of the map. They want us to met and the trailhead corners of Pine and Maple Street. However I need a physical address and zip code to have directions from my home to the trailhead. Could you PLEASE GIVE ME A ADDRESS SO I CAN MAP QUEST THE DIRECTIONS I NEED TO BEGIN THE BIKE RIDE.
I’D BE SO GRATEFUL!

I don’t use MapQuest these days, but with Google Maps (maps.google.com), you can type in an intersection such as “Pine & Maple Street, Snohomish, WA” and locate the place.

I don’t know if you’re still looking at this site, but I stumbled upon it looking for places to ride.
I rode this trail yesterday, it was very pleasant. I must have hit the right time because it was empty for the most part. I rode it backwards, starting at Arlington and working my way to Snohomish and back again. About 36 miles round trip.
It seems like it’s uphill from Snohomish to Arlington (or maybe I was tired!), the middle of the trail has some rough spots from tree roots that are starting to grow under the pavement. There were some planned closure signs so maybe work is going to fix this sometime soon.
I did not like the number of gates on the trail. Every little driveway and crossroad has gates that make just cruising the trail for timing purposes impossible. Otherwise very nice.
Yes, the web site is still active!

Good to hear!
If there are any other readers out there that would like to get in shape like me, I would like to ride this trail weekly. It took me 2.5 hours round trip. I’m no pro, but need to replace jogging with low impact cycling. I’m pretty open to schedules, weekday evenings are best though.
Someone experienced could hit 2 hours without too much trouble? Maybe you know other similar trails in the area?
We’ve been riding all the bike trails around Seattle this summer, and this one is really nice, with varied scenery. At Mahias there was not any food (despite signs saying so at the beginning of the trail in Snohomish) but there is a fruit stand on the other side of the village. We were planning to eat there, and had to go to a gas station at Lake Stevens, which was the only place to get a snack. The dock going out onto the small lake Cassidy was pretty, definitely worth a brief visit.
