AV-C Ride 6.29.2024 Los Altos Hills and Montebello

Hi All

This weekend’s route starts off with some warm-up climbs in the Los Altos Hills that will take us to the top of Rancho San Antonio. We will have a regroup in the park at our usual spot for water and restrooms. The route simply gets back to Foothill Blvd, which will then connect to Montebello climb. For those not familiar with this climb, it starts out steep with a relatively flat portion past the school (1.6 mi), followed by more climbing (Montebello Climb 5.2mi). For those Gravel types, you can keep going at the top (self-guided, Alpine trail or PM) and then consider meeting us back at Backyard Brew. We will then have a short regroup at the top and then a longer regroup at the park-stop below Mt. Eden Rd (Canyon Picnic Area). After our last regroup, we will then proceed back on Foothill Blvd.

The forecast is for warm weather. So, keep hydrated and load up on water at the regroups and consider double water bottles for your ride.

BTW, this ride will provide conditioning for the Bike Hut Classic (July 4 to 21) rides that will be coming up for AVC group in July.
