What a great way to spend a morning.
My buddy Pete and I hooked up in Redwood Park in the Oakland Hills. It is the largest 2nd growth Redwood Forest in the world. So someone says. Like Pete and I were saying, dating back to when?
It is like "restoring the wetlands." Back to what date? The 1950's? The 1850's? The 0050's?!
Anyway there are heck-a redwood trees and it is freakin' beautiful.
We hiked up to the East Ridge, rode up to Skyline, and hucked it down the awesome West Ridge. A tough ride up gets a big reward on the long downhill.
I actually too a wrong turn and ended up on the pavement of Redwood road.
"Twas nice.
The gps of the ride is here. (Hey we ain't going for a world record time)
Open the "Player" link on the far right after you click.
Here's a shot of the Chabot Observatory taken at the top of the ride.
