Ride Description

28.1 mi, 5 M, 3177 ft; Shannon/Kennedy,Foster,Overlook

Rise and Vine! Expect: Kennedy-A Bold, Structured Opening Climb with hints of optimism & misplaced confidence-Best enjoyed with deep breathing and light profanity. Foster-A medium-bodied mid ride Punch with subtle aromas of regret layered over asphalt that'll make ya wish your legs were decanted. Overlook-A higher Altitude Reserve with Attitude that's long, dramatic, and emotionally transformative. Testarossa-We'll roll the historic grounds however we will not be sampling wine-however we will be pretending we could identify a cabernet from a cardboard box. Kennedy-Perhaps the aroma of the winery made ya forget but it's back up Kennedy for a lasting sobering experience. Join Jamey & Rosemary to swirl, sniff and suffer your way through a day of robust climbs as long as you leave the sour grapes at home~ All welcome however know the route since we may not have a Sommelier to guide you. Start location: Almaden Lake Bathrooms, San Jose [Route Link]
