It seems to be another fantastic weekend for us to enjoy the roads at the higher elevations before the rains (hopefully) return.

Start: Summit Bikes - 392 California Ave, Palo Alto, CA

Protocol:
Helmets required, no sudden lateral moves, call out hazards, call out mechanical problems, ride at a steady pace, …, ask for a mentor if you are new to group riding
Jam as hard as you like on the climbs, occasional sprint for fun, soft pedal for an in-flight regroup when we get separated
Regroup at the top of every major climb and every significant descent — everyone descends at their own safe speed
Pay attention to the regroup locations and don’t pass them if you wish to stay with the group
Bring two water bottles
Regroups: first regroup at the intersection of Alpine and Portola; remaining regroups called out at each stop
