Thanks for the great ride report, and the pics! I plan on being out in the
fall, and if the gods are smiling, my visit may overlap one of these
weekend rides.
At the very least, I'll stop by Riv HQ to ogle some bikes, and maybe even
borrow one for a ride around Walnut Creek.

Rene thanks for posting this. Love the pics, looks like a blast.
Also just wanted to say it was also nice to see another rider post honestly
about a grueling climb! I love riding my Rivs, but there are times when
the climbs really get to me in a way that they don't seem to get to other
I walk all the time... just ask Tommy.
Great write up. I steer clear of the full write-up because I'm a slow
typer. Happy to read of other's adventures though.
Love the reverse-levered Boscos!

well-marked trails is that it cuts corners on twisty trails and can short
the distance by over 10%.

Another thanks for the excellent description and photos, Rene. Makes me
want to get out there some day. Doubt I ever will, though.

Great write up Rene.
Here's pictures that proved that yes. I did lie about the climbing.

That first 1000 feet is killer. I think if I'm ever crazy enough to do the
ride again, I'll rent a taxi and have it drop me off at the 1000 ft marker.
Yeah, that's the way to go! And besides the uphill bits of the ride back on

It sounds like a wonderful adventure. In a short while, you'll forget the
suffering but you will always remember the people the pleasure of getting
to the top of the hill.
As to Manny's it's all downhill from here, that happens a lot, with a
lot of people. Never believe it, no
There's always one more hill.

Great write up Rene, thanks for taking the time!
Good times on two wheels!
Cheers,
