Egan 2023.07

With the rainy weather behind us, Egan returns this week with a vengeance. This week’s route was designed by Steven Wu and features a variety of climbs along Page Mill. Since we’ll spend quite a bit of time on Page Mill, please respect the yellow line rule and pay attention to traffic.

As we planned to do last week, we’ll split the ride by Month of Birth:

• First group: January through June

• Second group: July through December
