Join us on SUNDAY September 25th for our Gala ride through the East Bay hills of ANTHONY CHABOT REGIONAL PARK! This will be a fun time as we climb up to the views from Brandon trail, weave through the eucalyptus trees on Towhee, rip down Soaring Hawk, and hit the single track on Redtail. Should be a great time so come join us!
Meet at:
The MARCIEL GATE STAGING AREA in Anthony Chabot Regional Park,
Intersection of Redwood Rd and Marciel Rd, Oakland CA 94619
We will gather at 9am at the Marciel Gate Staging Area by the picnic bench and hit the trails promptly at 9:30am.
The Marciel Gate Staging Area is in Chabot Park at the intersection of Redwood Rd and Marciel Rd. There are signs for it and the campground, which is farther down Marciel Rd. There are 2 parking lots, one on each side of Marciel Rd. The parking is free inside the lots, but it is limited. If the lot is full, there are spots on the side of Redwood Rd, north/south of the parking lots. Carpooling is encouraged to make sure we have space for everyone.
Join us for refreshments and snacks after the ride. A well-tuned mountain bike is a must!
- We will separate into 3 levels of riders: The beginner group, group C, will ride around 10 miles and 1000ft of elevation gain; The intermediate group, group B, will ride around 12 miles and 1500ft of elevation gain; the advanced group, group A, will ride around 15+ miles and 2000+ ft of elevation gain. All rides are ‘no-drop’ rides (we won’t leave you behind or let you get lost) and are fully supported.
- BTCEB (Bicycle Trails Council of East Bay) is the oldest Mountain Bike Advocacy Non-Profit in the USA. We are a volunteer run, advocacy group for mountain bikers; we work to get more trails made in the east bay, we help maintain trails within east bay parks (like Joaquin Miller and Crockett Hills) and we organize fun rides and events for the mountain bike community. Join us and help the cause!
