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 16th week of our series takes us out to the climb on Morgan Territory Road. Of course, there is some climbing to do even before we get there, but the payoff is well worth it. Bring plenty of food, as our first rest stop in Clayton. After that, we are out in the country for miles and miles. We will have a rest stop at the top of Morgan Territory. NOTE: the descent down the mountain is quite steep. We’ll circle around through Black Hawk for lunch. We head back through Danville, Rossmore, and Lafayette on our way home to Orinda. This route is one big loop with no shortcuts. Be sure you are ready to go the distance with us. ALSO NOTE: If there is even a chance of rain, the route will be changed.
All skill levels are welcome! If any ride is too much, we will work with you on making sure you have route alternatives during the ride. You will have a great bike ride!
Reach out with any of your questions or concerns. You really can do this.
