A Ride 2023-03-12 - Santa Teresa

Written By Michael Fryar

Spring forward with the A ride this week as we head south to The Valley of Heart’s Delight and Santa Teresa County Park. With luck, it won’t be raining—but the roads will surely be wet, so bring a fender. If the forecast worsens, an update will be posted noting that the ride is cancelled.

Pace will be steady endurance (~2.5 w/kg) with a goal of working together as a group. We’ll regroup after our three main climbs (Kennedy, Santa Teresa, Shannon). Bring two full bottles and we can top off in Saratoga, if needed.
