The D route climbs all the way to the summit of Mount Diablo, just like the LDT ride, while the C- and C+ route skips the 4.6 mile out-and-back from the ranger station to the summit. Then it’s down North Gate Road and on to a brief lunch stop in Clayton. All the groups then take the tough but enchanting Morgan Territory Road, before returning to the start. Meet at 9:45 AM for a 10:00 AM start at the Diablo Vista Park (Tassajara Ranch Dr, Danville, CA), corner of Crow Canyon & Tassajara Ranch Dr. in San Ramon (about 3 miles east on Crow Canyon after exiting from I-680). Contact Lisa Burque burquejl@gmail.com / 650-823-6800 or J.C. Sarner jcsarner@msn.com / (650) 854-4125 for more information.
Three options are offered on FFS rides: Slower C group (C-) with social pace and mandatory regroups; Faster C group (C+) with a bit faster pace and shorter regroups; D group with a bit longer and/or tougher route.
