Description: The last Italy training ride, and everyone is welcome. The long ride starts from Crockett Hills Regional Park which includes Pig Farm Hill, the three Bears (Baby, Mama, and Papa), Tilden Park, Grizzly Peak Blvd. up to Skyline Ridge, down to Moraga and back to Crockett. It’s tough, but think of how strong you’ll feel afterwards! The short ride starts at the same place, omits Tilden and everything beyond and brings you back to the start. The long route has water and restrooms on top of Tilden, then lunch in Moraga. Two big bottles should be sufficient. The short ride has facilities at mile 35. Bring enough water and your favorite riding snack. Meet at the Crockett Hills Regional Park, wheels down at 8:30. Take I-80 to Exit 27 for Pomona St. toward Crockett. Turn left onto Pomona St., turn right onto Crockett Blvd. NOTE: No restrooms available at the park. I highly recommend stopping at the Rest Area off of I-80 before the Carquinez Bridge.
