â ď¸The ride is subject to Alto Velo's Ride Rules and all participants must sign an annual waiver.â ď¸
This weekâs Low Key Hill Climb calls for a team excursion to East Bay. Weâll start from Cardoza Park in Milpitas, near the base of Calaveras (feel free to ride over from Palo Alto, but 105 miles is plenty for me). Weâll take Calaveras at a leisurely pace, stop in Livermore for a quick bathroom/water break, then organize ourselves for the 17.7-mile âhill climbâ up Mines Rd. After the segment, weâll regroup at The Junction, then do Mt. Hamilton since weâre out there anyway. Everything except Mines Rd is endurance pace, though youâre also welcome to go hard up Hamilton if youâre feeling it.
Hope to see you there!
