Recommended Rides

If you are looking for some suggestions, here are a few rides to consider:

1. Los Gatos Creek: Paved, pretty flat, easy access, food and ice cream nearby
2. Wilder: Old Cove Landing and Ohlone Bluff trails overlook the ocean
3. Harvey Bear: Calaveras and Valley Oak trails parallel to the lake
4. Nisene Marks: Aptos Fire Road up to the first narrow bridge through the redwood forest
5. Sawyer Camp: Whole trail. Easy and paved.
6. St. Josephs: A bit of climbing, start in downtown
7. Big Basin: Gazos Creek to Sand Point and back. A bit more challenging than the others.

1. Waterdog: Your choice of trails in a very compact park
2. Fremont Older: Mix of trails very close to homes and jobs
3. Saratoga Gap: Saratoga Gap to the Christmas Tree farm but a bit farther out.
4. Santa Teresa: Ride to top, down Rocky Ridge. Repeat. Finish off with a dose of Stiles Ranch.

1. El Corte de Madera Creek: Lots of nice trails with plenty of climbing. Something for everyone.
2. Soquel Demo Forest: Great rides down through the redwood forest...guaranteed to bring a smile
3. Pogonip/Wilder: Start in Pogonip and combine trails in both areas. Mmm...tasty!
4. Flume: Classic Tahoe ride. You have to bring a camera for the mandatory pictures.

1. Coe: See if you can take what Coe has to dish out. I am betting on Coe (and I haven't lost yet).
2. Tuolumne River: Down Lumsden Road, then a steep climb out. You are on your own here.
