About this event
Welcome!
Welcome to the Ramping Up - a progressive series of rides from Jan through May to prepare for multiple day rides (such as "Cycle to Zero" or "NorCal AIDS Cycle"). We start off with a 17 mile ride and build each week until we are doing a 100 mile ride. If you consistently take part in this series, you will be ready for just about any ride! Not only are the rides epic, but the scenery and the people are too. We are a warm and welcoming inclusive group of cyclist of all ages and shapes.

The Route
This ride is very basic. We start at McLaren Lodge and ride to the Ocean. We head down the Old Great Hwy (now a seaside park) down to the Zoo. We head inland and follow the paths around Lake Merced. We will have a break at a Peet's in a nearby shopping mall before heading back to the Ocean, up the Old Great Hwy and through Golden Gate Park again!
