Quick bike ride before the heat set in. About 11 miles with just under 4 miles off-pavement.

Monday Morning Bike Ride (or Mt Diablo and the Foothills are Turning Brown)
I stopped at this spot and all I could hear were birds chirping and the occasional jet rumbling overhead at 15,000 feet. I lingered for 5 or 10 minutes.
The word that came to mind was "restorative."

In 1986 the #EastBayRegionalParkDistrict (#EBRPD) was trying to decide what to do with #MountainBikes. This article, OUTLAWING OFF-ROAD RIDING, Winning Magazine, May 1986 captures those discussions.
