This ride is our easiest of our five, but prolly the most surreal.

This ride is EPIC!! This is our most loved (as well as the most remote) ride in our history of riding the area for over 5 years now.

We start in Orinda, then head east through the canyons (mostly flat) for about 15 miles.

This is the debut of my first and only purchased domain/website!

When my local bike store set me up with my new great ride, I agonized over getting the easier-to-shift double (2 ring) front gearset vs. a triple (3 ring) easier-to-climb option. Turns out, you can have your cake and eat it, too!

After about 45 days of training for the big 7-day bikeride in June, I got a new bike to help me get through the long repetitive days in the saddle.

Feb21: Woot!! Stage 2 of the brand new world-class cycling “Tour of California” went right by my house!
