Alameda Creek Trail (out and back): 22 miles total, No car traffic.  This ride has been advertised as a beginner’s ride on the New and Old Cycling meetup  https://www.meetup.com/new-and-old/

Basically, a sea level (flat) ride. This is a very easy ride suitable for first-timers. So.. . find a friend who wants to start riding and invite them.  There will be several somewhat easy rides scheduled in the first few weeks to encourage new riders along with “normal” rides for others.  I have a loaner bike if needed.

 if any experienced Cycling4Fun riders want to join this simple ride and help herd cats you would be welcome.  If able to come, let me know on my email at robtcarlson@gmail.com .  Signup for this ride is on the “New and Old” meetup — . https://www.meetup.com/new-and-old/  At this time, I have 15 riders signed up and the ride is still 6 weeks off.
