Sunday A-Ride 9/1/2024: Bohlman - On Orbit - Bohlman and Bear Creek

Join us for another fun Sunday A-Ride! We’ll warm up on our way to Los Gatos and then take on the challenging Bohlman - On Orbit - Bohlman climb. After regrouping at the top, we’ll carefully traverse the brief Motevina gravel section before descending and making our way to Bear Creek Road. Once we reach Skyline, there’s a bit more climbing, and then all downhill to Page Mill and back to Summit Bicycles. 

As usual, let’s regroup at the top of the climbs and stay together on the flats and descents. Plan to bring two big bottles, as we’ll likely stop once at Castle Rock (it shouldn’t be too warm on Sunday). If necessary, we can add a water stop at Stevens Creek Reservoir or divert to Lexington Elementary. Hope to see you out there!

Reminder: The A-ride meets at Summit Bicycles on California Ave in Palo Alto at 8 am Sunday
