A few shots from yesterday's ride. Did a popular route called the Three Bears Loop in Contra Costa County just on the other side of the East Bay hills. Total was just a hair under 40 miles and slightly over 4,000 feet of climbing. First I made my way through Tilden Park, where the fog lingered throughout most of the morning. This first pic is just before Inspiration Point, at the top of Wildcat Canyon.



It doesn't take long before you've left the city behind.



Here is a shot looking up at one of the Bears (though I came down this side).



The Three Bears Loop goes around the San Pablo Reservoir which can see in the distance.




There were a lot of cyclists on the road, but the only other vintage steel I saw was an orange sorbet-colored Landshark.
