Peaceful for the first 13 miles, less so as I rode into town. All good.

Ramping up to the ride on April 23, today’s 75 mile route was a solid challenge.

Saw one other bike, maybe 3 cars between Skyline in Oakland and the golf course in Castro Valley. Remarkable commute today.

I set out to mostly retrace the route I flatted on last week. Made a few subtle variations to keep things fresh.

Honestly, I was intimidated by the thought of this ride. Having driven the route to the entrance gate on New Year’s Day, the road was stacked with auto and bicycle traffic. It didn’t look fun. I was mistaken.
