AV-B Ride Jan 31st: Riding in Circles Until it’s Time for Shake Shack

Written By Alto Velo

AV-Ber’s,

Can this be right? We haven’t climbed Page Mill all year yet?? Well, we’re going to rectify that on Saturday.

We’ll go up Page Mill and then head south on Skyline for 6 miles before enjoying that sweet, sweet Highway 9 descent. We will turn down Redwood Gulch and ride all of Stevens Creek Canyon, then up and over Mt Eden before weaving our way back to Foothill. We will turn on Monte and head up Altamont and then finish by taking Arastradero to the Portola loop that lines us up perfectly for the sprint to Shake Shack. And let’s be honest I don’t lead the last ride of every month on “accident”. Someone remind me to order a double this week.

It’s looking like temps will be 50 when we start and up to 65 when we finish! Can’t wait to see everyone!

Non-members are always welcome, but please complete the waiver once a year.

Please make sure to familiarize yourself with the ride rules as well.
