Join us for a chill T-pace version of the traditional Thursday evening road ride! We'll go up Spruce to Grizzly Peak and Skyline, then turn right to head down Shepherd's Canyon and ride back through Montclair and via the Lake Temescal bike path. For those unfamiliar with the route, the first 7 miles are climbing and then the rest of the ride is mostly flat or downhill. Lights and a light jacket/windbreaker are strongly recommended, especially since the ride finishes around sunset.
The route does include a steep (13%) 2-block stretch (Roanoke Rd.) toward the end, but riders can avoid it if needed.
We will have multiple regroups and will stick to a T pace (10-12 mph average over the course of the ride). This ride is a no-drop ride and we welcome folks new to the club! Please note that after the 18.3 mile mark, the leader will not return to North Berkeley BART as is indicated on the cue sheet.
*Note that leaders rotate weekly, and we will try to always have two leaders at each ride.

Start Location: El Cerrito Del Norte BART
Same route as before, 35mm tires or wider are recommended. Days are getting shorter now, bring lights for the ride back to BART. There are a few spots with trail damage to watch out for but it hasn't been a big issue. Conditions are dry, cracked, and dusty but it's better here than in a lot of east bay parks right now. Make sure your bike is in good working order and bring whatever you'll need to fix a flat or other simple mechanical issues. Also make sure your tires are properly inflated, if you aren't sure what pressure to run this is a good starting point.

Please bring front and rear lights. It will be getting dark when we finish the ride.
Join us for a chill T-pace version of the traditional Thursday evening road ride! We'll go up Spruce to Grizzly Peak and Skyline, then turn right to head down Shepherd's Canyon and ride back through Montclair and via the Lake Temescal bike path. For those unfamiliar with the route, the first 7 miles are climbing and then the rest of the ride is mostly flat or downhill. Lights and a light jacket/windbreaker are strongly recommended, especially since the ride finishes around sunset.
The route does include a steep (13%) 2-block stretch (Roanoke Rd.) toward the end, but riders can avoid it if needed.
We will have multiple regroups and will stick to a T pace (10-12 mph average over the course of the ride). This ride is a no-drop ride and we welcome folks new to the club! Please note that after the 18.3 mile mark, the leader will not return to North Berkeley BART as is indicated on the cue sheet.
*Note that leaders rotate weekly, and we will try to always have two leaders at each ride.

Pre-registration
We'll be at Duncan's Mills at the same time as the TM riders, and we may see them again at Stewart's Point.
So two water bottles is a good idea. We're at the equinox, so bring lights just in case.
A loop from Duncan's Mills through Cazadero, out King Ridge to Stewarts Point and return down the coast. There is no food or water between Cazadero and Stewarts Point, so be prepared. The ride starts and finishes in the town of Duncans Mills on Highway 116 about four miles east of Highway 1. Route [https://ridewithgps.com/routes/19432648] Carpooling recommended. It is about 1 1/2 hours from the Bay Area, so worth sharing the drive.
