Hello all, this is my mtb ride from May 2nd at Rancho San Vicente park in South San Jose. (Loaded after a few days of crypto analysis). The shot below is from the trail above Calero Reservoir.
The ride was 25 miles and 1.5k of climbing on a 70* f day. Pretty much perfect weather for cycling!
GPS data is from a Garmin Vivoactive HR and uploaded to Strava.
The trail is mostly a 'double' track that weaves it's way through the green foothills which are just starting to dry out before summer.
One of the bridges built over a small creek on the trail. The mtb is a 2010 Norco Team Carbon hardtail. It suits this place as all of the trails are fairly smooth.
Lot of small yellow flowers to add color to the trail
I passed 2 deers which both ran away and up a hill. One of them ran to the top of a small ridge and was watching me from above... Since this park is fairly new, they are not used to seeing mtb'ers. I also saw a wild turkey and 2 small black snakes which both squirmed their way into the grass.
Testing out the Galaxy S8 on this purple flower...
Happy Friday!
