Welcome to the holiday weekend version of ‘2 Parks’: and old classic with some new twists including my all time favorite climb up Moody! With a bit of ‘here, there, and everywhere’ we will meander through Los Altos hills, tackle Moody, enjoy our favorite ‘loop with a view’ in foothills park, make our way to Woodside via a quick up and down on Alpine, and finally make our way to Huddart.
The AV C Ride is subject to Alto Velo's Ride Rules (read them!) and all participants must sign an annual waiver.
Non - Members: Alto Velo welcomes non-members to join us on our ride; however, non-members must have a Waiver on file with the club.
Time: Saturday gather at 9:00am, rolling by 9:15am
Start: Summit Bikes - 392 California Ave, Palo Alto, CA
Summit is Alto Velo's sponsoring bike shop.
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 Black and Altamont, we will call out other regroups as we ride, bathrooms available in Foothills and Huddart Parks
Shake Shack endpoint: we will end at Shake Shack for drinks and snacks!
