SAT SEP 20 5!/M/80 Mount Diablo Challenge Training Ride
Leader: Eli Alexander-Tanner (510) 593-9843 text
Meet at 9:00 am for a 9:05 am start
Start Location: Domingo Peet's
Pre-registration
Hey all I posted this on the BBC Project_Diablo Page but wanted to share with the GPC community as well: I've been doing some solo training but I'm missing the great Mount Diablo Challenge group rides we did ahead of the event last year. I'd like to get a good group going on Saturday September 20th. We'll start at Domingo Peet's 9am and go EASY to Oak Hill Park at the foot of the mountain. Anyone who wants to intercept at the park we'll be there at 11am. We roll to the event's start line from there and it's pick your own pace to the top, where we'll regroup and ride back the way we came: South Gate, St. Mary's etc back to the East Bay. Route is around 80 miles door to door and we get it done in about 7 hours with some BART bail out options on the way back. This is 2 weeks out from the event so it's a good chance to get the mountain in the legs one last time ahead of the event. This is also a great social opportunity where you can talk about your pacing goals and maybe find some friends that you can work with on race day. Please note this is not a typical GPC ride: It is a DROP ride. Pace out and back will be very easy but all riders will be expected to be fully self-sufficient in terms of food, tools, route, etc. Know your limits, equipment and bailout options please. Approximate route is below please note the posted route does not start at Domingo Peet's which is our official starting point (see above). Hope to see you there! https://www.strava.com/routes/3403445368278211976

In return for being allowed to participate in any activity by Grizzly Peak Cyclists, Inc.:
- I acknowledge that I and other participants may be engaging in activities that involve risk of serious injury to me, including viral and bacterial infections, other communicable illnesses, permanent disability, and death.

- California Civil Code section 1542 states: 'A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.' I specifically waive the terms of that section, and agree to release claims that I may not yet know of, or which may be based on events that have not yet occurred.
- If I am allowing children under the age of 18 to participate in any activity, I agree on their behalf to the terms of this Release.
