AV A Endurance - Saturday 11/01 - LKHC Kings

This week’s A endurance ride will take us to this week’s Low Key Hill Climbs segment: Kings’ Mountain Road.

We’ll roll from Summit and around the loop for a warm-up, stopping for a regroup and water at Tripp before the effort. Since Kings’ is my favorite training road and I want to keep our friendly relationship, I will bring a small bag to carry others’ water bottles and fix a flat kits up the hill for them in lieu of a full effort.

After regrouping at the top, we’ll roll along Skyline, and down 84.

If the group is interested, I’ve mapped out a coffee stop at Loma Mar store, followed by road bikeable dirt on Old Haul Road to Pescadero State Park and West Alpine. I promise this is actually road bikeable, not just “Robin road bikeable,” as Matin has done it on 25s in the downhill direction. If there isn’t sufficient interest, we’ll just go down 84 and climb West Alpine.
