Hi All,

Inspired by the TDF and TDFF(avec Zwift), I have a “hilly” stage for the C riders this weekend.

“Oh but Jonathan," I hear you saying, “isn’t this just an excuse for you to disguise a bunch of Egan segments as a C ride?” And you sort of have a point! I actually would like to treat this a bit like an Egan ride, but maybe not in the way you think. Lately some of our group rides have had a tendency to go a bit too hard on the flat sections between climbs, so let’s fix that. There are plenty of climbs for y’all to get your zoomies out on without blowing up the group for the poor folks in the washing machine at the back. Plus, this route is complicated as all get out, even more reason to stick together between efforts.

We will roll out Sand Hill to Woodside via Manzanita. After a quick regroup at Mt Home and 84, we will roll up Cañada to the maze and then up Huddart, regrouping at the store after the climb. Then it’s Tripp to Portola to Wayside and a Willowbrook loop before our second water stop at Alpine/Portola. We will finish with Westridge (Jonathan Style) and Alpine/Joaquin to Los Trancos. Finally, we end at Manresa for some delicious pastries courtesy of Bicycle Law!

If none of that made sense or you’re directionally challenged… download the route linked below.

TL:DR - Maze, Huddart, Store, Wayside, Willowbrook, Water, Westridge, Joaquin, Pastries p/b Bicycle Law!
