I will check the weather the day of, and update the heat advisory on the bulletin. Dress for hot weather and bring lots of water though as we will probably cycle through hot areas. Jennifer will lead the faster cyclist and Melanie will lead from behind.

Old Santa Cruz Hwy,Skyview Terrace,Wrights Station
*** NOTE: Early start at 8:30 AM to avoid the worst heat. ***
Meet at the upper parking lot of Lexington School around 8:15 AM to be ready to start at 8:30 AM. After OSCH, we'll descend and climb out of the steep Skyview Terrace before a hopefully cool descent to Wrights Station. Probably stop for cool drinks at Summit Store. All paved roads up to this point.
After that I plan to descend Schulties Road into Laurel and for this I advise at least 28 mm tire width for this stretch. After the heat, there may be more dust along this stretch than usual. At Laurel, there's another tunnel portal of the old South Coast Pacific RR which ran to Santa Cruz until 1940. Skipping Schulties avoids 7 miles and ~780 ft of climbing.

Friday fun ride with a little ‘adventure’ starting at 8AM to beat the heat. Ride start/end is at the Building Blocks Preschool on Summit Rd. Start Location We climb Stetson/Skyland, descend Soquel San Jose to the junction, climb Rodeo Gulch, then continue towards Scotts Valley via Mountain View, Branciforte and Granite Creek. In SV, we take Bean Creek and Glenwood to Mountain Charlie road. That’s where the adventure begins! The landslide on Mountain Charlie requires us to dismount our bikes and walk across to the other side. This was doable back in April. A video taken a week ago, shows that the road is still passable on foot. We will regroup on the lower side, pass the slide, then ride back to the start.
