To the top of Mt. Diablo- not for glory, not for fitness, not for spiritual enlightenment, but because Trek is handing out shirts and ACTC members are genetically incapable of turning down free stuff! That's right! We're heading up Diablo to secure the legendary Dare To Diablo shirt.-a garment so exclusive you can only get it by...well, doing exactly what we're going to do anyway. We swing by St. Timothy's Church to appease the Trek GPS gods. We'll then head up the South Gate at a civilized yet moderate pace. Summit photos optional but strongly encouraged for maximum bragging rights. Join us for a devilishly fun morning & a chance to say I climbed Diablo and all I got was this stinking shirt!

A kinder, gentler BSBC for us coastally inclined cyclists. Explore the beauty of the greater Monterey Bay while journeying car-free and free-solo, with rough roads and gravel, overnight, to Big Sur. Early Bird launch and late day Sunday finish at Grant Park Community Center, Los Altos. Expect full sun, heavy motorist traffic, (with the latter oftentimes great for us, as we bypass blocked motorists), some of whom may even ask you for help or direction.

Ride Start: Upper parking lot of the Lexington Elementary School in Los Gatos. Today is supposed to get to 93 d. in the shade, well over 103 d. in the sun, and even worse on the back side of Hamilton. So we will have to do our Summer Fitness Route in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Even though this is only 11K+ feet, it almost seems tougher than our Mt. Ham DRT. If you are still thirsty for more punishment at the end of the ride, you can still pick up Black, Montevina, Aldercroft, or any of the goats in the area. Jennifer will lead the faster cyclists in front. Melanie will lead from behind. The Death Ride is 4 weeks away, so stay strong, people, stay strong! 13-06-2026 07:30:00 13-06-2026 09:30:00 6 ACTC: Summer DRT Fitness Series 100 mi, 5 LM , 13,211 ft: Ride Start: Upper parking lot of the Lexington Elementary School in Los Gatos.
