As we head into the warmer spring weather, and with the Grizzley Peak Century around the corner, we have a longer than normal route served up for you! This route combines Pinehurst to Redwood Road South, over to Palomares Road, and back north through Pleasanton, Dublin, San Ramon, Danville, and Alamo.

We will meet at 8am and roll at 8:30am from the shop, and head up the bike path towards Canyon, turn left on Pinehurst, then left on Redwood Road all the way over to Castro Valley. We will stop at a market / corner store in Castro Valley, before heading over to Palomares Road. This is a somewhat isolated road, so please bring your repair kit and nutrition so that you can be self sufficient. Once we descend Palomares, we take a left on Highway 84 / Niles Canyon Road to Sunol for our next re-group and bathroom/food stop. Then we head back north Foothill Road to San Ramon Valley Blvd which turns into Danville Blvd back to Walnut Creek. After we hit Rudgear Rd. we will turn left onto Castle Hill to Lancaster to Lilac to Newell to Olympic to Blvd Way.

Please ensure that you download the route to your Garmin/Wahoo, or save it to your Strava App for reference.

Please plan your nutrition and hydration based on the two planned stops, and take the length of the route into consideration.
