Every time TBO and I ride our bikes through the searing summer heat of the Tri-Valley, we swear we’ll not return until the winter months when the average daily temperatures are more bearable (so at least under 80 degrees.) But a picnic at Del Valle Regional Park sounded pretty tempting…
The slow march towards completing my first R-12 continued this weekend. San Francisco Randonneurs hosted a double-brevet weekend where riders rode from SF to Cloverdale (and chose from a 200 or 300k option.)
as I’m always eager to check out a new route, I scanned the Grizzly Peak Cyclists’ extensive archive of cue sheets and picked out a themed ride (I’m a sucked for these): the Tour of Five Canyons.
Ride-On held our annual party in the wilderness, “Camp-On”, at Point Reyes National Seashore’s Glen Camp.
“Happy Trails To You” is a mostly flat, scenic route that circles the bay and includes 6 trails through the course of the ride: Stevens Creek; Bay Trail, Coyote Hills; Alameda Creek; Coyote Creek; Guadalupe River.
