The Do-Over: Delta Tour to Sacramento
Leader: Mary Ann Jawili (661) 343-5737
Leader: Jessica Jensen (510) 508-6389
Meet at 9:00 am for a 9:15 am start
GPC Route: Antioch-Sacramento
Start Location: Antioch BART
Join us for a tour of the delta and out to our state capitol! This is a mostly flat ride with some interesting route landmarks and diversions: three bridges, the delta, waterfront country roads, two ferries, and even a mansion. The CA-160 bridge is short and steep. On roads with no shoulder, we may break up into smaller groups and reconvene at predetermined points. Food and restroom at Rio Vista (Mile 16.5) and Clarksburg (Mile 41). Beer and barbecue (with vegetarian options) in Sacramento.
This route is designed to start with the BART train arriving at Antioch at 8:56am.
Riders are responsible for getting their own Amtrak tickets and getting on the train. Leaders will take riders to the train station in time for the 4:55pm Capitol Corridor/Amtrak train back to the East Bay. Riders may take a later train if they want. Note that there's a Buy-One-Get-Five-Half-Off deal; riders are welcome to self-organize to take advantage of the deal.
This is not a no-drop ride. We will ride at a T-pace, which is defined as 10-12 mph on the Three Bears Loop. Given the flatness of this ride, average moving speed will probably be ~13 mph. Faster riders will have to wait, and slower riders will get dropped.
Poor AQI and/or extreme heat will cancel this ride.

- If either ferry is out of service, we will follow this route instead. Ferry status will be confirmed in the morning before we roll.

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.
