Big Ring The Dumbarton

Alameda, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara for a second, and back to Alameda County.

I rode on the 280 freeway for a minute- not too bad.A kind Pen Velo guy showed me the way south.

Now I understand why the folks that ride the bridge are so damn tough, that thing is nasty, but like ya love it nasty.

Lots of microclimates and a big cross section of the Bay Area and some good people watching. Gawd I like GG park, fun stuff.

How many miles is that ride?

98 from Pleasanton, I did Palomares at the end.

Really not that hard of a ride, you kind of roll up and down the ridge, but not anything crazy.

350 TSS points.

I Barted over, it would be interesting to ride it as a loop going over the Carquinez and down through Marin sometime.
Perhaps even Barting back from the city.
