A Ride 7/16/23 - Pescadero Coastal Classic Pre-Ride

This week’s A Ride will be the last before the Pescadero Coastal Classic Road Race, so we’ll head to Pescadero and pre-ride the race course. We will regroup at the top of Page Mill and West Alpine, and we’ll also stop for water in Pescadero. On the flats, we’ll ride in a steady paceline (~3.5 W/kg) to get in some low-stakes pacelining practice before the race.

The Pescadero Coastal Classic Road Race is next Saturday, July 22 - register here! If you don’t want to race, Alto Velo is looking for volunteers to help this race run smoothly, so please consider signing up for a volunteer position.

Reminder: A Ride meets at Summit Bicycles on California Ave in Palo Alto at 8 am Sunday during the summer.
