Dear Herd,
Good thing some like it hot. While the evening light is (sadly) beginning to wane ever so slightly, the summer temps are not! HOT August Nights are upon us. Bring two water bottles and get ready to complete a circuit around our beloved LAH on a route featuring some of our all times favs including Moody, Foothills Park, and Stirrup/Moon. Women’s group is happening this week! Bring yourselves, bring your friends. New riders always welcome.
See you Tomorrow!

What: The Egan Ride meets at the Los Altos Chamber of Commerce parking lot every Tuesday at 6:00pm and leaves at 6:05. We regroup and recover after every climb; if you can do OLH in under 25 minutes you should have no problem keeping up with the A group (the B and women’s group have no OLH recommendations, just come join!).
Where: Los Altos Chamber of Commerce. 321 University Ave, Los Altos, CA 94022
How: Remember, pace yourself appropriately, there's lots of hills to climb! Pay attention to traffic and don't hog the road. Riders are encouraged to wear garishly colored socks on the Egan Ride, and riders are discouraged from riding Egan if they wear conservative socks.
