PRS #13 San Gregorio

Hello-

A few quick notes about tomorrow’s PRS M/M+ ride:

·        We meet at 8:00am for an 8:15am start.

·        The path around Facebook/Meta is closed, so after we get off the Dumbarton Bridge, we will turn right to go onto the Bay Trail, turn left onto Willow, and turn right onto Hamilton. This RWGPS URL reflects the change: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/29067372  

·        The only two places to purchase a snack are at mile 37 (San Gregorio General Store) and mile 41 (The Bike Hut), so be sure to bring snacks and/or cash.

·        Cue sheet attached. Please print your own.

PRS #13: San Gregorio

Start    Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge 1 Marshlands Rd, Fremont, CA 94555

Length 69.4 miles; 5869 feet

Meet at 8:00 am for an 8:15 am start.  Start from the upper lot, past the visitor's center on the left, at Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge, 2 Marshlands Rd, Fremont, CA 94555.  (Be sure to go past the Visitor Venter's lot and park in the larger lot on the left.)


This ride features stunning scenery with long climbs that add up to the most climbing we will do on a PRS ride. It’s over the bridge, up Old La Honda, down La Honda, and almost to the coast as we go to San Gregorio for lunch. Go easy on the heavy stuff though, because after lunch, on our way back, we will climb Tunitas Creek and will need our concentration for the Kings Mountain descent.
