***NEW*** LDT RIDE: SARATOGA B/2(1500’)/34; C/2.5(2800’)/43; D/3(3400’)/48; E/4(6000’)/58

  • Sat, February 18, 2023
  • 9:45 AM (PST)
  • Gunn High School, Palo Alto

Calaveras LDT is REPLACED with Saratoga LDT. 

Due to continued road closures of Calaveras Road and Alum Rock Park we will do the (previously rained out) Saratoga LDT instead. The D route is relatively easy (as it's usually early in the series) so C+ riders are encouraged to do the D route (we'll have faster and slower D groups). 

The Calaveras LDT is rescheduled for 4/15/23.

LDT RIDE: SARATOGA

  • B/2(1500’)/34; 
  • C/2.5(2800’)/43; 
  • D/3(3400’)/48; 
  • E/4(6000’)/58

This ride will take various routes that traverse through Saratoga. B riders take a lowland route and have lunch in Saratoga. C’s and D’s will climb Mt. Eden/Pierce and run up to the end of Stevens Canyon then continue through Saratoga and the maze then on to lunch at Alotta’s Deli in Los Altos (D’s add a few local hills early in the ride). E’s take a more challenging route climbing Old La Honda and West Alpine then return via Mt Eden/Pierce. (NOTE: West OLH is officially closed, so E riders should descend on Hwy 84 instead.) BE SURE TO BRING SNACKS as lunch is late in the ride. Rain cancels.  NOTE: There might NOT be open restrooms at Gunn, but there is an early restroom stop on all routes. Online route sheets/maps/gps.
