Alto Velo C Ride Apr 8 2023
Hi Peloton
This week is an eclectic mix of short hills, roads less traveled and a Church. We are scheduled to leave through Stanford Uni, and ride in front on Memorial Church. This quick ride by on the way out and the way home will be our nod to the Easter Holiday weekend. We will head up Alpine and then take some backroads of Portola Valley. We will throw in the standard climb of Huddard, and after that some non-standard climbs like Canada College, Carmel-in-Woodside, and the westside of Emerald Hills. Those hills are a nod to last week’s Tour of Flanders and the upcoming spring classics with their short steep hills. As always, we will end back for tea and coffee.
If you haven’t downloaded the ride, I recommend you do so. It is a very non-standard course but really beautiful.
