October 31, 2009: Redwood Gulch, Hwy 9, Page Mill, Foothill Expressway

Riders: Jun and Gene...Foggy and cold at the 9am start. Brrrrr! However, it warmed up and turned into a good day for a ride. This was a rare road ride as we normally mountain bike on Saturdays. The ride started on Foothill Blvd near Stevens Creek Blvd. Continue onto Stevens Canyon Road, left onto Redwood Gulch (aka 1.5 miles of climbing HE_ _!), right onto Hwy 9, right onto Hwy 35, right onto Page Mill Road (the downhill blast!), right onto Moody Road (the houses there are amazing), down El Monte, right onto Foothill Expressway to the starting point. 31 miles of riding, 2.5 hrs on the bike with a net climb of 2575 feet (Start at 184 feet with highest point at 2759 feet).
