We will roll out as one big happy family and stay that way or I will turn this group ride around… which we will, at the very end of Steven’s Canyon road, after a water and bathroom stop at the Canyon picnic area at mile 14.

Hi All,

Welcome to this weekend’s C ride! Great job on last week’s hilly ride in the wet! This week we will make our way from Summit to Woodside before climbing King’s and Swett. Then we will head south on Skyline to 84 west and eventually climb West OLH before descending back down to Woodside and back to Cal Ave. While temps are expected to drop from today it may still be warm - please bring two bottles. This route has great options to shorten the route and still meet back up with the group - please ask us if you would like suggestions.

Alto Velo C Ride Aug 16, 2025- Portola State Park or Bust!

Hi All,

Welcome to this weekend’s C ride! This week we will tackle an out and back from Summit to Portola State Park and back. This was a hit last summer thanks to John C’s planning so I thought we should give it a re-run! We will head from Summit up Page Mill, over the top and down the first part of West Alpine before taking a left at the fork and descending down into Portola State Park. With any luck the volunteers will be working and we can purchase drinks and snacks at the store in the park. Bring money for snacks and two water bottles. We will have a long exposed climb out to re-trace our pedals back to the top of Page Mill before descending back to Summit.

Alto Velo C Ride - August 9, 2025 - Local Climbs

Hi All

Jonathan here! It’s my birthday week and while I was tempted to take us up W Alpine, the forecast is looking a little hot for that. So instead you’re going to have to follow me up a silly maze of climbs in our back yard, most of which will be nice and shady. We’ll tackle Altamont, Foothills Park, Wayside, Willowbrook, Alpine, Joaquin, and Westridge. Any similarities to upcoming Egan routes are strictly coincidental.

Allen Iverson voice: We talkin’ bout practice.

Alto Velo C Ride - June 21, 2025 - Crazy Horse

Hi All

A new route - Bear Gulch. It is an out and back with a very steep climb out of the turn around point but the views can be unbelievable if the fog (Karl) cooperates. It is a little more climbing than normal but I hope you will enjoy it.

Charolands Chateau & Flintstone House with teats @ Manresa bread / Sponsored by Bicycle Law. 6/14/25.

Hi All

It’s been a while since we visited the Flintstone House so I thought we could visit again with a detour to Carolands Chateau just a couple of blocks north of where we turn for the Flintstone House. Please download the route as last time 1/2 the group made a wrong turn & missed the Chateau.

Those of you that can stay to the end of the ride, Bicycle Law, will be sponsoring Coffee & Snacks at Manresa (Town & Country Village855 El Camino Real, Palo Alto) following the ride.

I will need a head count for how many will end the ride @ Manresa Bread.

Bicycle Law is one of our Supporting Sponsors. They are a law firm specializing in litigation on behalf of cyclists. If you are injured as a result of a hostile driver, hostile road design, or something else, Bicycle law may be able to help. Thanks to the work of the Bicycle Law team, both amateur and professional cyclists have received as much as six-figure settlements after crashes.

Alto Velo C Ride - May 31, 2025 - Highway 9 / Skyline - Please Note Early Starting Time 8:30 am

Hi All

*** We are starting the ride at 8:30 am. Last year with the normal start time they were cleaning up when we arrived and we want to avoid that.

Saturday is the annual pancake breakfast at the South Skyline Fire Station; otherwise known as the water stop at the top of Highway 9. They will be serving pancakes from 8 - 11am and we will try to get there around 10:30am and trickle in over the next 10 - 15 minutes.

We owe a great of gratitude to our fire fighters and this is a way to say thank you. Not only do they help us prevent the forest fires, but when the unfortunate happens and one of us needs help, they are there for us. I have been coordinating with Andy since he reached out a couple months ago. They are expecting us and excited to see us.

After pancakes we will head north on Skyline. The published route will go all the way to 84E, but there is a shorter option to go down Page Mill.
