Bay Area: Los Altos

Here are some of the rides that we enjoy in our scenic state of California.

Our route sheets are free for non-profit use. You may use them for exploring on your own or for leading rides for local clubs such as the Western Wheelers or ACTC.

The route sheets are in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF). If you do not already have Adobe Acrobat Reader for reading PDF files, you can download it free from Adobe's Web site.

Please practice bicycling street smarts. Wear a helmet, ride safely, obey traffic laws, and courteously share the road. Be a good ambassador for cycling. Thanks, and enjoy!
