AV-C Ride March 1st - Los Altos Hills and Montebello

Hi All

Weather forecast looks good for the day, so we will head to the hills. This weekend’s route starts off with some warm-up climbs in the Los Altos Hills, and we’ll find our way to our regular Rancho San Antonio regroup spot, where there’s water and restrooms. The route simply gets back to Foothill Blvd, which will then connect to Montebello climb. For those not familiar with this climb, it starts out steep with a relatively flat portion past the school (1.6 mi), followed by more climbing (Montebello Climb 5.2mi). For those Gravel types, you can keep going at the top, and those familiar with the trails can find their way back to Backyard Brew (by PM or Alpine trail). At top, we can see if anyone needs a pitstop (Mt. Eden Rd Canyon Picnic Area), OR will will regroup at Stevens Creek Reservoir parking lot at the bottom. After our regroup, we will then proceed back on Foothill Blvd.

The forecast is for cooler temps, so you may need layers to strip off going up hill and to put back on for the downhill.
