Saturday, December 6th

Start in Orinda and ride some great cycling roads of the area.

1100 or 1900 ft climbing; approx 20 or 22 miles.

Meet at 10:15 am at the Orinda Library (cafe) 2 blocks north of Orinda BART.
  
Best to arrive early, so we’ll have time to sign our Ride Waiver form. Ride rolls at 10:30 am from Orinda.  We start with an easy climb over to Moraga, then mostly downhill to Lafayette (where we can do a food stop), then up Happy Valley.  We will then have option of an easy return through back roads, or a return with some great climbs and descents (including Papa Bear).  These are mostly very scenic country roads and trails.

The ride will be canceled if there is 90 plus degree weather or a 30% or greater chance of rain for Saturday. Check Friday evening from this Weather Underground link: https://www.wunderground.com/hourly/us/ca/orinda. Check for the hours between 11am and 3pm. Bring water, food and money.
