Egan 2026.20 - Little Red Riding Good
Egan 2026.20:
Its going to be hot: ~85 Fahrenheit, ~30 celsius in a worst case, so bring 2 water bottles. To avoid the heat we are going to be running into the shaded mountains and pretending to be a team of mountain goats (20% + on Joaquin). Be there or be square.

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.
