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.
