Join us for the "Ring of Fire" Challenge!

Get ready for an epic day of climbing around Lexington Reservoir. We’ll be tackling the "Ring of Fire" route, featuring four big climbs: Soda Springs, Montevina Rd, Black/Gist Rd, and Bear Creek Road. It will be about 8,000 feet of climbing but you can easily cut out a climb or two and join us for pizza after the ride.

Meeting Point: We’ll park at the base of Black Road where it intersects with Montevina Road. https://maps.app.goo.gl/4vDMiAs94Dw7HsjEA

Meet: 8:15 a.m. Roll: 8:30 a.m.

Since the route passes the Black Road parking area before the Montevina, Black Road, and Bear Creek climbs, you can easily swing by your vehicle to refuel. We’ll have a gallon of water and some snacks at our car. We recommend bringing your own supplies as well!

Restrooms & Water:

After we conquer the climbs, let’s celebrate and grab some pizza and drinks at Pizzeria Vittoria (21433 Broadway Rd, Los Gatos, CA)! A trusted source says Pizzeria Vittoria has a good beer selection!
