February 28 @ 10:30 am - 3:30 pm

 

Saturday, February 28th

Lots of country scenic roads and bay shoreline; moderate climbing; 3000 feet; Approx 45 miles

This is a good ride to take BART, or park in the BART parking lot: we will meet at 10:20am at the Orinda Library Cafe. Arrive at 10:20 am, so we’ll have time to sign our Ride Waiver form. Ride rolls at 10:30 am. 

We will ride West via Camino Diablo and Appian Way, to Bay Trail, to a rest stop at Crockett sandwich shop, then East along the Carquinez Scenic Drive (no cars allowed), then South from Martinez onto Alhambra Valley back to Orinda.
