Welcome to the Sunday Orinda Ride Series. We are an all-pace/all-skill training program. We invite everyone – from novice to speedy – to join us.
The 12th week offers several mileage options as the hill climbing continues. The first part of this week’s ride takes us to Castro Valley via Lower Pinehurst, Upper Redwood Road, Skyline, and Lake Chabot Road. After our break at mile 26 (and the option to take BART back to Orinda) we’ll head out the Dublin Grade and up Schaefer Ranch Road. The 35-mile option is at the BART Station in Dublin/Pleasanton. From there, the route levels out considerably (but is not completely flat) for our lunch break in Danville before heading back through Lafayette on our way to Orinda.
The route is at: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/26857440/
All skill levels are welcome! If any ride is too much, we will work with you on making sure you have alternatives to the entire route. You will have a great bike ride. That’s a win! And remember, safety is critical. We will be following all bicycling laws and regulations as well as COVID regulations.!
Reach out with any of your questions or concerns. You really can do this.
