Bay Trail Ride Sunday

Yikes Spazz - that's a lot of climbing!

A change of plans but still a good ride.

Spazzdog and I met up to do Alameda Creek Trail. I attempted the Jobob Nemesis Hill, did not get all the way up, not really far even but coach Spazzdog sent me back up it 2 more times.

Oh, and I brought my commuter and tried to keep up with her on light and speedy Epezie (sp?). 26 miles, beautiful weather, I'm spent, need a nap.

But this ride she's designed we should do it!

Yup... probably. But it's the lesser (in climbing) or the other Oakland routes I'm looking at.

Today, Dita and I did Alameda Bay Trail... an easy 26 mi. Hope everyone else had a nice ride as well.

Glad you guys had a nice ride- I've never done the Alameda Creek Trail...something to look forward to.

Bikerz and I did the Bay Trail, I was quite leisurely, taking care of my knee, but she got some good sprints in. The wind made it somewhat challenging. Also, I almost ran over two little kids. They waited by the side of the trail as we passed (well, they let Bikerz pass) and then when I got right up to them, they darted in front of me. But I didn't actually hit either of them, thank the lord.

The ACT is one of my favorite paths, it can be a flat out and back or take a detour and add a little climbing. Either way it offers great views of the Bay and East Bay hills.

I especially like it when the weather is bad or threatening to be because it does keep the idiot factor" down. We only had one cyclist who while waiting for the women he was riding with just had to position his bike perpendicular across the trail. Not bad for a Sunday
