Today's ride was another variation of a ride in and around the East Bay hills. Basically there are several ways to enter the hills and several ways to exit, so there are lots of rambles possible. If I had time I'd draw up a decision tree of all the possible entrances, turns, and exits. That would be really cool.
Anyway, today's route enters the Berkeley hills via Spruce Avenue, travels through Tilden Park to Orinda and Moraga, then into the Oakland Hills and along the ridgeline to Castro Valley. From Castro Valley I had planned on circling by Lake Chabot, but Lake Chabot Road was closed for "tree disposal". So I had to take a detour that was significantly less scenic but with the same end point: San Leandro BART station.
Animules: None! Hiberation?
Total Distance: 40 miles
Total Time in the Saddle: 3.5 hours
Total Elevation gain: about 3700 feet
