18 mi, 4 M, 2900 ft; Alpine Road East,Montebello Regional Park,Skyline Regional Park,Russian Ridge Regional Park,Spring Ridge Trail
This ride has lots of variety. We'll start at the corner of Alpine Road and Willowbrook (park along Willowbrook). After an easy warm-up up the paved part of Alpine (little traffic), we'll climb Dirt Alpine to Page Mill and cross into Montebello. Then its off to tackle Sunny Jim (tough) and Russian Ridge. A bit more road riding will get us to Windy Hill for a fun, fast fire road descent and then a bit of single track back to the start. There are a few porta-potties but no water, so be fully self supporting. Optional post-ride lunch at Amigos Grill in Portola Valley. Start location: Alpine and Willowbrook [Route/Map]
