AwesomeAhead! Season 11 Episode 15 – Old La Honda and West Alpine
This is a grand daddy of them all ride. This ride is a tough one – even for people who “”love climbing”” – BEFORE lunch we’ll climb Old La Honda and West Alpine. Almost the entire ride’s climbing is in the first 46 miles – and then we’ll do a swing out in the flat returning to the San Tomas Trail sprint. This ride is long – and can be very hard if you aren’t ready – but when you finish, anything on AIDS/LifeCycle will be a breeze. this is the ride everyone talks about – and everyone finishes as well. Bring your climbing legs!
The route is at: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/29662445/
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.!
