Sunday A-ride 6/23 - The holy trinity
Hello riders,
It’s going to be a warm weekend, but cooler on Sunday, which will be perfect for this route with the earlier start time of 8:00am.
We’ll start going south and warm up on Grant’s favorite 3 minute climb before climbing Bohlman/On-orbit. After a regroup at the top and a short gravel adventure, we’ll go down Montevina. If the fruit stand is where it usually is at the bottom of Bear Creek we can get some light refreshments. We’ll then continue around the reservoir to climb Soda Springs, and descend back to the reservoir and climb Black rd. to Skyline. After a quick water stop, we’ll continue to Page mill and back to Summit.
Water stops - Saratoga if people want to top off before Bohlman, food stand at the bottom of Bear Creek (if present), Castle rock. Note: No soda at the top of Soda springs.
Come for the entire route, or take one of the many shortcut opportunities along this route.
See you there!
