Car-free Canyon Ride to The Wall
43 miles, 3 (2980'), M
Start location: Downtown Niles
For one day only Niles Canyon will be closed to cars. Let's take advantage of the opportunity to ride it both ways without any traffic breathing down our necks. We'll ride from downtown Niles, through the canyon to Calaveras Rd. We'll take Calaveras to the top of the wall and then turn around and ride back through the glorious, traffic free canyon. Optional coffee at Devout in Niles at the end of the ride. Since the ride is an out-and-back riders who don't want to do the full distance can turn around at any point (just let the ride leader know so other riders aren't waiting at re-groups). Rain doesn't cancel the ride, it just makes you wet (until it's really coming down!).
