Bonjour / Hi AVBers!

The weather is looking fantastic this weekend, and we’re celebrating the end of May with one of my favorite routes. Come join me for my first-ever ride lead!

We’ll head up OLH first, regroup at Skylonda, descend 84, then climb West Alpine. We’ll finish via Page Mill and end at Shake Shack. As always, anyone who wants to send it up the climbs should feel free to do so, for the rest of us who like to chit chat, the pace will be around ~3W/kg.

The forecast looks clear, so I can almost guarantee great views and plenty of sunshine on West Alpine. What I can certainly guarantee is a Shake Shack treat waiting for you at the end of the ride.

Excited to see everyone!
