Am waiting for the gloom to glow and the temps to rise... hopefully by noon. If that happens, I'm off for a ride.

Plan is to ride from my place in Oakland to Lafayette. The route, approx 15.7 miles, ?? feets of climbing:

East (??) on Piedmont to Pleasant Valley.
Right on Pleasant Valley
Left on Moraga Ave
Moraga becomes Mountain BLvd
Left onto Snake (though the map indicates Merced which runs into Snake)
At fork of Snake and Shepherd Canyon, stay straight-ish onto Shepherd
Left onto Skyline
Right onto Pinehurst - twist and turn through that, then
Left onto Canyon Rd
Canyon Rd becomes Moraga Rd
Right onto St. Mary's
Right onto Hope Ln

Call friends in Lafayette to come retreive my body

I suppose if this works out and I get fitter, this could become an "out and back" for a 30+ mi route.

How crazy is this one girls?
