25Feb2012: 3 Parks: Russian Ridge, Coal Creek, Montebello






It was a very nice day for riding! Blue skies, green mountain views, cool 50 deg F but a bit windy up on the ridge. And we got to do 3 parks - Russian Ridge (ancient oaks, hawk, ridge trail, rapley ranch road trails), Coal Creek (cloud rest, meadow trail) and Montebello (white oak trail, skid road) Open Space Preserves! See you guys again next weekend.

Riders: Gene, Radi, Benny, Chito, Jun, Tim

18Feb2012: Fremont Older

Third consecutive weekend ride with no rain at all! Cool (60 deg F) slightly overcast day with Gene, Chito Jun and Benny. Toyon was closed due to previous day's rain so we ended up doing a couple loops of Seven Springs.




At Masie's Point, we found some interesting rock-on-top-of-rock "artwork".... but wait, scroll down below and guess what else we found!

Jan 2012: Sneaking in a few solo rides






Though no organized group rides in January, a few of us rode taking advantage of unWinterlike conditions (i.e. no rains!).

Tim did a road ride with another group on Saturday, January 28.

Benny rode the streets and hills of San Francisco up Twin Peaks, down to overlooking the Pacific Ocean and across the Golden Gate bridge on Saturday Jan 14. And on Jan 28th, brought along a friend, Franco, to try out a mountain trail for his first time ever on Stevens Canyon trail.... he's still my friend ;-)
