Start/end in Woodside behind the Pioneer Hotel (porta potty available). We take the short way to the Bike Hut: up Kings Mountain down Tunitas Creek. After a refresh at the Bike Hut, those inclined can challenge themselves on the ascent up Tunitas Creek on the Bike Hut Classic (a fundraiser for Abundant Grace homeless workers/ACTC is a sponsor), while others can take a more relaxing approach.
After catching our breath, ignoring our aching legs, and regrouping at the top, we take on Native Sons and Star Hill/Swett then head across Skyline to OLH with an optional stop at the store at the intersection with Hwy84.
Ride at your pace with regroups at summits and Skyline & 84.

Not a regular ACTC ride, this is an ACTC Touring Academy training ride. Although we meet @ 9:30am but the ride will start only after the Academy students’ panniers pass safety check. This ride is a good introduction to anyone interested in bikepacking and bicycle touring. For example, is there a need to purchase a new fancy gravel or touring bicycle? Absolutely not, I will be touring on a 40 years old mountain bike. Optional lunch at the many Vietnamese, Chinese, and Mexican restaurants at the end of the ride.
