AwesomeAhead! Volume9 Chapter9 – Auguste Rodin and the Redwoods
Few rides offer as much variety as this fun ride brings to the table. Mile 10? Stanford’s world famous Rodin Sculpture Garden. Mile 19 – a hot steamy cup of love, Mile 20-23 EDGEWOOD!, Mile 34 – the amazing Alpine Creek climb. Edgewood is surely the most challenging so far, it’s a two-mile climb that intimidates some riders, but with TRL’s there cheering you on, you’ll be surprised how fun this climb is. At the top of the climb we’ll slide down into Woodside and we’ll tackle the Portola Loop via Tripp Road. Our second long climb takes us along the beautiful Alpine Creek. Then onto Arastradero, and finish up with some flatter terrain via the Central Expressway.
