RIDE DETAILS:
This is an intermediate ride which starts with a steady 2 mile climb. Total distance is about 7 to 9+ miles, 1.5 hours to 2.5 (depending on size of group and various skill levels), 1600 ft of climbing, must be comfortable on single track trails... This is not considered a beginner ride.
Augustine Bernal Park / Pleasanton Ridge - One of the easier routes up to the Pleasanton Ridge Park - The ride is both fire road and single track (some "narrow" and a few steep switchbacks). The route we will take is not super technical, it offers great views of the Tri-Valley, drop down into Kilkare canyon, which offers a refreshing shaded canopy of trees, a few little creek crossings (during winter), single track sprinkled throughout the ride, and well... some climbs of course... nothing super steep
