Bay Area Trail

Well I don't have my LDP yet, but it should be here in a couple of weeks (I ordered a Galac).
I knew I had some local trails around here that were quite nice, but I didn't realize the extent of them. This is the biggest set of  paths I've ever seen. I live in Los Altos of the South Bay Section. It's only a short ride for me to reach the Stevens Creek trial which is currently being extended even further. From the Stevens Creek trail I can access what is eventually going to be a continuous 500-mile network of trails. Shocked

Once I get my legs up to pumping standards, I'll start taking this thing a few miles at a time. I hope to do a distance ride at some point before I get out of highschool. I'm only a sophmore right now so I have plenty of time to train.

stoked,
Aaron

Links

This is where the trial will begin for me:

Mountain View - Stevens Creek

Conveniently enough, my girlfriend's house is a few blocks away from this trail.  Wink

If I take this all the way to the end of the paved section, I'll end up at the mouth of this trail:

Shoreline at Mountain View Tour

There is much more trail to see after this, but I think I'll just try to conquer this for the first few months. I can't wait to get my board!

sweet looking trails aaron.   and man, that's a lot of detail on that first link, dude has spent some time on that.

always looking for some ride options in that rare event I might trip southward.     I wonder what the longest, continuous stretch of paved trail is right now?    hope to see some shots of your own once you start eating that trail up!
